The Other Forum

[Flybye]

Yep, SH is right, my statement (not a quote) was taken out of context. Others were discussing in previous posts on this, the "other forum" topic that they felt comfortable posting here. Not so much for me right now. My only intent was to let others know that there are folks everywhere, regardless of the forum, that lack the ability to be civil. Even though I am one tough cookie, the remarks that this person made toward me did hurt my feelings. I considered backing off the site and not posting anymore after the poster made these comments to me, but the wealth of experience and advice that I receive from the other women is worth more than a smack by someone else. I also received numerous personal messages in regards to the remarks made by this individual which helped. Her remarks were removed from the topic forum. Great moderators is right!!! Yeah and thanks!! I don't wish to name this person at all, just to let others know that controversial subject are best left off of this site - stick to cycling related stuff. IMHO.

Fortunately, there are not many folks here who are crusty, so this is a fantastic site. I am thankful for those who recognize diversity and are comfortable with those who have opinions that are other than their own. I applaud the TE ladies for their couth

This is because we shower after our rides -- if not, we would be pretty crusty!

And I too applaud the ladies of TE -- for all they share, and the delightful way they do it!
