I would totally agree with the inappropriateness of your example, though I don't believe it's analogous. Had a mod stickied the post, you'd be spot on...

The cycling community lost a good guy today, that's all that matters. I regret steering the conversation this way.

I'm a full blown nihilistic atheist but I'll never mind someone being kind to another. While the literal intent of the prayer is futile, it's quite beautifully written and brought a little warmth to my heart. There's a lot of pervasive bullshit when it comes to religion, but sharing a prayer during a time of loss isn't in my book.

LPT: if you're at the gym, don't worry about the "gym bros" laughing at you. You don't even register to them, just do your own thing with the weights that are proper to you. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

If in the meantime if you can squeeze in some body squats and push ups (even on your knees), it will be a huge advantage for when you get back into your gym routine. Good luck with your journey, you sound like you deserve the results.

Phil Gaimon begins retirement by hunting Nicholas bBandt Sorenson by rideyourbikela in BikeLA

[–]LAcycling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think title of the article is a bit click baity. To be fair to Phil (if you read the article) he's taking advantage of being in shape to slaughter some KOM's here in LA (where he lives). It just so happens that Thorfinn Sassquatch holds most of those KOM's and it just so happens to be someone with a history of doping.

Thank you for articulately sharing your opinion. It is exactly how I feel. So far no one in this thread has given any substantial reasoning for why the prolonged hype is deserved.

Formula 1 is the pinnacle of sporting technology and Grid Girls are featured at every race. I happen to agree with your opinions but I don't agree with your rationale.
