Welcome to the Tue, 10/16/2009 – 02:10 edition of Off Topic! You are looking at the next step in the evolution of VCN, the Off-Topic page. Have you ever been frustrated because you had a burning desire to call someone a sandbagger and could only hope to be timely by posting your comment to a photo gallery page or on a page describing a charity ride?
Well, your prayers have been answered! You can post your comment from the home page and it magically comes to rest here with the other orphans from the land of Misfit Comments. The page gets refreshed every day, but not to worry! Each day’s page will be archived and treasured, so you can look back on past pages with pride, shame or disgust-depending on how the day’s conversation went. So post away! We’ve got an internet to fill up.
“When I raced in the Phillipines…”
kinda sounds like…
“This one time, in Tijuana, there was this donkey…”
From TT Vegan himself,” When I raced in the Philippines I only did two sanctioned races but they didn’t ask for licenses from anyone…but thats a whole different world.”. Somebody remind me how he got his upgrade?
Did not even win the few races he entered in the Phillopines and they were against guys 50 years old or 30 lbs overweight. He has less than 10 mass start races total and is a Cat2. The ultimate upgrade scammer… But then again, he does not race so who cares. He just likes to BLOG about his Cat2 dominance and 10 hour training rides.

Envy is indeed a serious, sometimes fatal illness. It is an ignoble character trait that tears rifts between people, communities, and even nations. A community that is blackened by this loathsome quality is one wherein cooperation and love become virtually unknown. Enmity, hatred, and violence become the order of the day.
Denzel Washnigton really can’t make a bad film. Even the ones where he is a cop in Florida. Or the Bahamas. Or something. Might Quinn? Great!!!
haha, nope, that’s way off. no one envies the guy; people are mostly just turned off by someone who talks huge game with no results, and also angry that it’s apparently possible to BS one’s way into an upgrade that most people actually earn.
No one envies that guy. According to the rules of USA cycling he does not even have enough mass start races to get a Cat4 upgrade. Forget about a cat3 or a Cat2. He had a handful of Cat4/5 races where he was maybe top 15. The rest of his races (approx 10 at most) are TTs. Mostly we all find him comical.
I am guessing he would not be able to win 1 Cat 4 mass start race in CP or PP or FBF next year.
well, maybe “we all” can complain to USAC then, maybe they can help us “turn on” and right the wrong so blatantly perpetrated and help shed some of that “anger” or at least stop you from writing here about it over and over again, it got old real quick…
envy – to wish for someone to lose something good that he or she has.
you were saying?
it’s not envy. i don’t want to be in his situation at all.
I bet TT makes a mean tofu stir fry.
Nothing “Good” about racing Cat1-2 with Cat5 legs and Cat5 experience. I would not want that ever…
oing, you’re a douche. sooo tired. no one here gives a 5hit. we didn’t care 6 months ago when you 1st typed this, and we don’t care now. go kill yourself.
