Political threads and other "controversial" threads don't bother me. Sure I can get "excited" or even angry about some people's opinions but I get over it rather fast. Everybody is entitled to their own opinions, even if I think the logic or information they use to come to it is foolish. There are a couple of fella's on here I could never agree on politically, but we share the love of riding bikes, so they're cool with me. Live and let live. Share what we enjoy and don't take everything else too seriously. Ride on, brothers!


After my series of strokes back in June,and the fact that the neurologists told me to watch my blood pressure, and the fact that I finally came to the conclusion that in this day and age even civil discussions with friends are almost impossible when politics is concerned (hell, I've seen ridiculously NON-political posts go nuclear political any more, it's plumb STUPID!!!), I have learned to just ignore posts from people who are obviously never going to agree with me, or worse, who post obviously inflammatory crap! Life is too short, and too full of naturally occurring crap, to get involved with self-induced and easily avoided headaches. While I'm not a fan of banned speech, and these day lean toward ignoring political posts, it is nice to NOT see them on here any more, with the dearth of BS posts being posted even on Facebook any more.
