Tell us Frank, how often did you ride with Jobst? Comparing riding a touring bike casualty on a dirt road isn't anything like Jobst did. He rode a 68 mm or so bike FAST on off-camber dirt road, which was his business, but he would have a groups of riders chasing him so he was purposely leading them into dangerous situations.

Tell us, Tom, why do you respond to so many posts with irrelevant

As often as you post irrelevant idiocy from your maniacal expanded eyeball comment.
