    Hi Lee

    I have no idea whether you’ll receive this email or not, but heh ho I’ll respond to one of your blogs anyway as I can’t find any contact details for you.

    I’d like to express my thanks to you for your continued fresh and inspired writing, in fact it’s so darned fresh I feel I’d smudge the article were it hand written!

    Keep up the excellent work, your views , both objective as observer or subjective pack substance and passion in equal measure. You pack a good punch too.

    Thanks for bringing the sport we all love to Eden greater prominence and keep smiling, your zest jumps out from your writing too!

    All the best Ossie Assem

      Hi Ossie,

      thanks for the comment amigo, very much appreciated! i find people commenting to very motivational, sometimes it’s a bit of a feeling of shouting out into the void, good to know someone’s listening!

      you can find crankpunk on facebook, as well as myself on there too, pop on there if you’re on and we can have a chat.

      keep cranking brother!

      cheers

    I get the gist, bikers can be psychos, but when I started cycling in the 80s there were many weird, strange or simply eccentric loners in the sport. I miss those days, another downer of the Lance period was bringing cycling into the mainstream. No wonder he went on Oprah. Ugh. Let’s give the sport back to the weirdos.

      hi Patrick, that was when i started too, there were some loveable oddballs that’s for sure – and some not so loveable nutters too. most guys these days hardly ever even ride alone, never mind being loners. but i guess things evolve, and in a sense there is more of a community feel to cycling these days – i just don’t know how many people really ‘get it’ still, though.

      on another note, everything works too well these days too! when i started everything made you hurt – bartape wasn’t soft, shoes killed after about 2 hours, saddles cut in, clothing chafed and left rashes, spokes bust, the bikes weighed 14kg – ah the good old days…

    Good – I should certainly pronounce, impressed with your web site. I had no trouble navigating through all the tabs as well as related information ended up being truly easy to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Reasonably unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, web site theme . a tones way for your customer to communicate. Excellent task..

    May I just say what a relief to find somebody that actually understands what they are discussing
    on the net. You definitely realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important.
    More and more people need to look at this
    and understand this side of the story. I was surprised
    that you’re not more popular given that you certainly have the gift.
