I thought that too.

From what i remember about peoples ages,

Ruben (Dekker Tifosi) is young enough to win white jersey at the Tour de France this year and i think next year
Moondance is from 1988.
El Pistolero is 19 y.o.
Michael veedeebee is 18.
The Youngest is in his 20's though i think later ones/
hrotha said he was 11 when Indurain won his second Tour.
Jamsque seems to be significantly younger than Freire,
Craig 1985 speaks for itself.
ACF was born on the 94th day of the year, but around the same year as Craig.
Parrulo is a student somewhere.
Ryaguas is 23 or some such i think.

And me, well i was still a teenager when i joined this forum.

So you are one of the youngest. But I think Eric3A is younger than you

that is indeed a nice memory hitch

i am bit like that myself i remember most people and what kind of posters they are

btw i am 20(turning 21 on the 22nd of august) and i study mechanical engineering in oporto :p

Yeah I've been reluctant to post my age, as I hope it doesn't make people view my posts with a different perspective :eek:

Also I try to seem condescending at times, calling acf kiddo is an example of this :D

I got a speeding ticket there once. ;)

It was years ago but I rode up a mountain road to a wine place, also, on the main drag in Montrose there was some good Mex food if I remember.
You could check some info with a LBS...must be some good info from folks in Grand Junction, too, as it is not too far.

hope these help, good luck have fun.

My dad tried to get my brother and I into fly fishing but I always sucked at it. Now I am making this trip and I am being lured in. The place we have picked is fishrigs.com . I am going to order a cheap rod/ reel combo off of amazon and practice in the park so that I don't repeat my past fishing history of catching bushes, trees, reeds, myself.everything but fish. I also had a pinhole in my waders last time out and it was super annoying, I hope the low end gear I am getting from Cabellas at least keeps me dry. Thanks for the links. I am going to eat Mexican food 4 times a day everyday. If I get something good I am going to get 2 orders to go of whatever it is. I am really looking forward to the mountain bike riding. I have not been blanked for a really long time so I hope I at least catch a fish

Finish work tomorrow, and I'm off to China on Friday. And better yet, I won't be on here during that time, so it's a win-win for everybody. I'm not on here, and everybody is spared from the nonsensical crap that I post.

I hate you Hugh Januss :D

19 year old student, working part time in a place just outside Sean Kelly's hometown! So pretty much busy all the time! When I'm free I read a hell of a lot, very active politically. Support Everton FC, play waterpolo and do lot's of riding, so yup, that's me!

Borussia dortmund ist meister!!!! :D :D :D

I do wonder if Susan's family are Dortmund fans. I ask because I remember when she said when her son got mugged when he was going to a Bundesliga game, and how she has said that they live not that far from the Dutch border, and unless my geography is wrong, Dortmund would be the closest city to the Dutch border, that has a Bundesliga team.

Es gibt nur eine Borussia ... ("There is only one Borussia") ;)

Your son must not be too pleased right now, his team are fighting to stay in the first division but recently it's been looking better so maybe they can make it.

@Craig: There are a number of Bundesliga teams in that area such as Schalke, Duisburg, Bochum (the latter two go back and forth between first and second division a lot). Karlsruhe, Aachen and especially Bielefeld have all been in the Bundesliga for some time but are now second division. In general the west has the highest concentration with Cologne, Leverkusen, Mainz, Mönchengladbach ...

It's too bad there aren't any teams from the east anymore. Even Berlin was second division this year but they will be back next year. Other traditional teams from that area are Rostock and Cottbus.

You do have a good memory Hitch, as I for one do not recall myself saying who I support in football.
