after i say some hurtful things about people jumping on the kick-cycling-while-it's-down bandwagon and all bein' like knowin' about the dopin' and the stuff, scott c calls me out quite eloquently...

A column from the US sports press, but relegated to ESPN.com's Page 2

fair enough.  but it appears to me that this is an nice example of the exception that proves the rule.  this type of writing is rare and though i do not expect much more of it, i will squirrel away this link as an example of what i hope to see more of.  still smarting from the speed and ease with which the above was produced, i was simply overwhelmed by this in my inbox from a fellow mabra volunteer...
Also, I've noticed that the use of capital letters has crept into your emails recently. You must be vigilant and true to your cause.
ouch. that left a mark.  as i indicated in a follow up email, this comrade's vigilance is truly an example to us all. a suitable punishment? another year of volunteer duty for mabra should suffice. along with being moved to a half ration of cloth and potatoes: the austerity ought to encourage some serious thought about my commitment to the revolution.  i gladly accept this for the sake of the glorious cause that is the revolution in cycling and the social order.
