Pushing Buttons...

I have decided that training is way too hard so I have had easy buttons installed on each of my bikes. When the going gets tough, I'll just hit my easy button. All you suckers out there keep your training, I've got the easy button. This will surely give me a competitive edge on my rivals.

KuhnDoggy, who coincidently I hold in high regard, I think took a little shot at me on the MASS email list, which is pretty damn shy as far as lists go. It's like a prepubescent MAC list if you know what I mean. But, I digress Kuhndoggy's point was that I didn't offer any solutions when I just pointed out that Michaux and French Creek were scheduled on the same day. Without saying, "someone should move their date..."

I thought I was being respectful and the fact that I was pointing out that Michaux and French Creek were on the same day would be impetus enough to cause promoters to want to make a change. Many others made the point in not nearly as kind of a manner. I felt there was no need to point out the obvious. I guess I was wrong.

In the end French creek moved to Saturday of that weekend. I still feel both races will suffer, there I go again pointing out the obvious , two very tough, very good events on the same weekend are gonna draw from each other. Sad really.

KuhnDoggy would it better if I just said, " someone should move to another weekend?" I was banking on the fact that every intelligent person on the planet already knew that. I also understand the logistics of promoting a race, and accept it's likely not feasible at this time. I'm not lashing out in anger. I hold no grudge, no ill will. That's life, no sense crying over spilled milk, just hope next year the dates work out better.

What can I say, this isn't the first time that I have sent out an email that may have caused someone to say, "what a fucking jackass, I'm gonna kick his fat ass!" realistically, I doubt it's the last time it will be either. I'm okay with that. Sorry if I was the fly in your Vaseline. I didn't mean to be a dissenter, I actually thought I was helping. Kuhndoggy, I still love you, and have mad respect for you. You are one of our regions best racers, and have the some of the best events. You're also a pretty damn nice guy. I usually keep my email pimp hand strong but in this case, I'll just keep my steady stream of porn and singles websites coming to the MASS list. You know I love reading 20 thousand guys respond, "I thought this list was about mountain biking..." hey, does this ruin my chances of getting on Visit PA forever?
