"I really enjoyed a segway session at newington armory when I went. They are a lot of fun and I really cannot see them being dangerous to the user unless you are being an idiot or riding beyond your ability (the guy who bought the company that…"

"I dont know what it is, is it pack mentality that we see in every social group? All I know is that whenever I see a group of cyclists together, regardless of attire, they are often acting like an inconsiderate bunch of W!@#$%S. I bet they are the…"

"When I grind up a steep hill I sometimes think if my chain snaps right now I will be stuffed but never in my mind have I ever thought it possible to snap a crank and I have carbon cranks too."
