:D You have no idea! I just finished my latest issues of Art Forum and Conde Naste so I decided to log back in and see if anyone who takes themselves way to seriously bit on my line and sure enough you did. I love goofing on forums with elitist snobs who always love preaching to the choir while not realizing they are chasing away the congregation. Then again don't we all love following a sport that the average dip **** can't comprehend.:rolleyes:



Fer shizzle! Thanks for dropping some Italian on me. I'm always looking for a chance to use the free on-line italian to english translator! How do you think I edumacated myself on what Tifosi meant!

BTW (By The Way) Pink is the new black, at least as of last year.:)

Well I don't read Art Forum and Conde Naste, so I guess that makes me less of a snob than you...;)

Nothing screams poseur, self-absorption, and high maintenance like Conde Naste. Content wise, the closest thing remotely resembling anything with wheels is maybe a golf cart, car, or pizza wheel. Where's the love for cycling?

Who thought of that? It's hard enough out there for cycling fans in the US having to put up with crappy comments about "spandex" and what not. I don't care if pink is the new black.

what gives?

For a guy that has a cyclingforum, you need to do your homework. You said 'print is dead', so I assume you have a 'puter and are 'online'

Google or Yahoo things like 'Madison track racing' or 'Major Taylor' or La Gazzetta della Sport.
