There was some people on BF a while back that posted non-dubbed videos with a lot of panting, seriously it was ridiculous, those sounded more like adult movies than cycling reports. Thankfully, most of the posters learned the lesson and now use nice songs as a soundtrack to their ride/race reports...
Thank you for proving my point about the other forums on this one too. Are you one of the posters from those other forums who happened to read my posts in this thread?

I can't stand videos that have all the ride audio replaced with music (that is usually not even what I would listen to in the first place). I like to show what it was really like to climb these hills and how much work it was. If people would quit associating breathing with sex all the time, maybe they wouldn't be so damn uptight. Society needs to stop obsessing over sex. It gets old.

I really wish the pettiness hadn't driven these other posters you speak of to neuter their videos with annoying music. I'l much rather hear the effort of climbing than music. I want to hear the intensity of the race and the climb, not a stupid soundtrack.
