Why here? As far as I know no-one has ever changed anyone else's opinion on an internet site. Mostly we just end up insuting each other anyway.

Cycling is a niche sport - why not try posting where you'll get a wider audience?

The soap box is fun to whinge on but for fooks sake harping on about the same thing day in and day isn't healthy for you and certainly isn't any fun for anyone else.

One day at a time people - just like alcohol you too can probably get over the political self induced stress....

Let's go and ride bicycles!

Yes but, what are the political implications of your recommendation Seriously, the most powerful nation in the world is run by proven thugs/robber-barons & you beleive it isn't worth discussing Come on now

This is called the "soapbox." It is a very educational part of the forum.... Today we get a lesson from Wurm on the word "dis·in·gen·u·ous." And hey, if I didn't come to this part of the forum I would not realize as to how miserable I am in life. Besides... The Jerry Springer show got boring.

This is the soap box, that's what it's for. If you have a problem w/ it then go some where else.
