That was you? I'm impressed. Was that Vince that pulled along side to say "rest in peace?"

At the current exchange rate, the difference is $4,984.46. |
Yes, but how much is the resale value of the $5000 touring bicycle?

You ***** haven come up with a good answer to the question of a Mexican cyclist legally using the roads in his own country vs. a foreign cyclist.
Let alone how RV ************ out on a lark, unfit to operate a vehicle that size even on a normal road and in many cases inebriated to boot should
ever prevail over either of them? When Mexican commercial drivers can quite easily coexist? And International Law says that you are nothing but
downright ignorant.
Good luck coming up with another road of this length and strategic importance in a remote area anywhere on the face of the earth where bicycles aren't
allowed? That's right chief, not even in Mainland China......and certainly not anywhere else in Latin America.
I've seen more of Mexico and Central America than almost all of you, most of it from a loaded touring bike and never had a lick of trouble with
native drivers anywhere, not even the ones operating vehicles that weighed twice as much as full sized RVs.
And not on roads that represented the most twisty parts of Mex One running along for hundreds of miles just like that at a clip either.
Generally with a LOT more overall traffic too.
WTF is YOUR problem then?
Imagine the plunge from San Ignacio down to Santa Rosalia stretched out to 40 miles worth going through really thick undergrowth where you can't see
around curves at all on the bottom half and that's the west side of Durango-Mazatlan.
The two roads from Oaxaca to the coast are cut from just about the same cloth too.
You know, maybe YOU clowns are the problem? I didn't see anything resembling a Class C RV on any of them?

OK, let's make that get back on your meds AND go back to attending those anger management classes caboclass. Looks like the real ones
with road rage here are on two wheels, not four.

Holy Crap, I already made "junior nomad."

Because he wasn't competent enough to move over two feet on a totally empty road?

cabo,
that josie pozer registered 2 days ago, probably prompted to do so by your postings. fyi, it is pointless to argue bikes vs vehicles with the aarp
set that populates this board -- they all drive oversized pickups, suvs or RVs; and none have been on a real bike in 40 years. a few have beach
cruiser bikes that they wheel around their retirment communities, but that is lazy cycling in flip flops,... most of the people here would be buying
electric-assisted bikes if they knew about the new products that apppeared in stores this year; in fact, if they had e-bikes, they could peddle a 9%
grade despite their prodigous guts and a beers in hand
bummer to see you got banned -- you were funny for a while

Looks like there is one tactical advantage to engage them - eventually they get themselves banned.

The jerk is in fact banned. BYEBYE
I may have in the past had an affinity for a poster who had the fire in his fingertips to raise a ruckus here, but this person bothered me from the
start.
All is well.

I don't even drink beer and probably couldn't hit a tree from ten feet with a beer bottle but I want one of those ebikes! I promise to yield to all
nomads on highway one and let them pass by.

Not wanting to pile on, it just seemed to me that beyond this posters original intent, there was basically nothing more than pure venom. Figure, if
that's all you got, then, vaya.

Could have been venom but when somebody just rambles on and answers there own posts it sounds like they are delusional - psychotic to me. get back on
your meds caboclass, stay awake in your anger management classes and all will be well in that little strange world inside your head.

Well, josie....seems you've hit your stride early on the Nomad board.
Good stuff from you in the heat of nonsense. Hope to see more of you here.

I Have No Dog in This Fight
I just have dogs.
But, a few comments and then I will duck for cover.
1) Cabo-whatever seems like a really angry guy. For whatever reasons of his own, he took this discussion personally and escalated it to Iranian
nuclear power plant levels. Chill out dude! Hillary Rodham Clinton is on call to net-gotiate peace.
2) Nomad commenters have been responding his posts in a measured and direct manner, asking reasonable questions about Cabo-whatever's assertions (and
also mostly ignoring his derogatory characterizations of others).
