Can it be? Botto and RyanF both banned? Again?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Can it be? Botto and RyanF both banned? Again?

And he his brand of fiction is quite unique, but it is running its course, at least with a few on here, others seem to not be able to get enough of it, or simply can't recognize it for what it is.

Or simply don't take things so seriously and realize they they have total control over which threads they read or don't read and which members they can ignore or not ignore. Really, I don't see why so many get their panties in a bunch over some of this stuff.

You know, if someone didn't mention it every time is happened, I wouldn't even notice that Botto and Ryanf were not here.

I guess Ryanf had to go back into hard training since he missed his one and only race, go he got himself banned. Its hamer time

if only ryan cood kep from being band so oftin, the hilarty cood continu.

I dont care if you keep banning ryanf, he doesnt bring much to the table and he needs to learn a lesson.
PM me if you'd lie to see why I was banned the last time.

Botto, RyanF, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy are posting on Bikeforums.net and one get's banned.

The tooth fairy of course...this is the Roadie forum after all, where real men where spandex and look dimly upon being associated with fairies!

The answer is Botto. The other 4 don't exist.

Well, no, I wasn't calling you old.

But for the record, yes, you ARE old. Go yell at those kids on your lawn again.
