Lynette,

Cycling is much more of a spiritual experience than just racing and your

experiences are just as important to share (with those interested) as a

discussion of an expensive component. Thanks for your offer to Powells... I

hope they offer you a time. I am sure alot of folks would be attend... even

racers... they might want to ride the length of the island as a time

trial!!!

 Hi folks,

Apologies for halfwittedly cc-ing you my last email about presenting my

bicycle adventuring talks at Powells.

Someone wrote to me angry said he reads OBRA for Bike Racing Info only.

Yes, the R does not stand for Randonneuring!

I mistakenly assumed my posts would be of interest - and forgot posts

gets delivered into people's boxes rather than just on the message

board.

Please forgive me. Email me if there are other Portland lists who I

could notify of my talks. Privately of course.

And I'll re-post when I get fast again on the Pro Petite ... well,

fastish ... http://tinyurl.com/ypcj5

Adios.

Lynette,



Whoever wrote you that nasty-gram needs to get a bit of perspective. It's

just a bike-related mailing list, not a military target database. Some

things are worth getting worked up about, postings on this list just aren't

a part of that set.



Please keep posting your cycling related announcements, that's what this

list is for.



Phil

You have no reason to apologize. Anything cycling related is fair game.

I apologize for the narrow-minded person who sent you the e-mail

criticizing you.

Lynnette. Thanks for your postings and don't be chastized by a single email. To say there is no consensus on the scope of OBRA postings would be an understatement and the only authoritative voice on the subject would be Candi Murray. I, for one, greatly enjoy your postings.
