Mountain bikers think that someone telling the truth about their disgusting,
destructive sport is "a disruption". That's a scream. Your ad hominem attack is
a disruption, and totally off-topic in a mountain biking newsgroup (or any
other).

.Notice all of the cross postings, you are already being disruptive. 
.Anyway, people who continue to act like Gordon and you end up with their 
.own web sites.  See www.ray-gordon.com for an example.  Just food for

.Just a note, might want to check your own ISP's TOS before requesting

.probably in violation and maybe deserving of this very sanction.

Smarter people than you have tried that, and failed, many times. I am doing
absolutely NOTHING wrong, or I wouldn't still have my account. DUH!
