DirtyDan Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 As far as I know, Duane, you didn’t take part at Ezel this year. Have you taken part in the EzelEnduro during it’s 3-year existence? I may be wrong, but I believe you have not. Therefore, in keeping with your dim-witted precedent, you are not “qualified” to comment on HIS report. Maybe you could take your closed minded opinions over to Europe and forget them there while you’re being lazy up a ski lift. Next when you grow a pair of HTFU, you can attempt to complete EzelEnduro and “be better” at offering an opinion of substance.
Skubarra Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I didn't claim any ability mate. This is what I wrote. Where in there do I make a claim about my ability? "With respect Myles. You should not have written this. For whatever reason, you didn't finish the event. There are 54 people who did and are therefore more qualified to write about it. Surely finishing should be a pre requisite to putting pen to paper?" Fact. He didn't finishFact. The event was more than twice the vert he's managed in the pastFact. He managed 1100m of the 1600. There's a MASSIVE difference between 1100m and 1600m Fact. 54 people actually did finish and are therefore better placed to write something like this In my opinion you earn the right to write something like he did. By his own admission he didn't train and he didn't finish. Therefore he didn't earn the right. That's my opinion and I stand by it. I meant no disrespect and maybe I should have PM'ed him rather than comment on here but this is a forum and we are all allowed to have opinions right? Sorry, but what a load of codswallop Since when do you have to "earn the right" to share a cycling experience on social media? Myles didn't claim to do something he didn't do, he didn't misrepresent the experience - he told us about his weekend as he experienced it. Cannot imagine how in your mind a DNF in an event disqualifies you from sharing your experiences of that event. You keep on harping about the 54 people who would be better qualified to write race reports while totally missing the irony that none of them bothered to, maybe if we can encourage people to tell their cycling stories rather than bashing them with arbitrary made-up rules we would have more cycling stories on thehub and less virtual handbags
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 17, 2017 Author Posted October 17, 2017 BikeHub civil war 2018 ( in the making since Oct 17th) In the blue corner we have Myles , In the red corner we have Duane And just to throw another spanner we have special guest ref. Vetseun " Round 1 , FIGHT " ** I'll erase it in an hour Thread took A dive A few pages ago Really wish it hadn't, tbh.

Vetseun " Round 1 , FIGHT " ** I'll erase it in an hour Thread took A dive A few pages ago No no. Don't erase. I withdraw as I see my opinion is clearly wrong. Apologies Myles and all those offended. I truly meant no disrespect.
captain morgan Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Myles a great write up of your experience at Ezel and advice for anybody wanting to do this ride .... its not about winning /finishing , but having a good time with mates and challenging yourself. Well done !!
Vetseun Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Let's just agree to disagree that someone on here is a bit of a knob... Myles you articulate yourself really well in the way you write. I wish there was more to read maybe next year you'll finish stage 5 so that you can earn the "right" to post it here.... Hope to see you there next year you've inspired myself and my best mate to do it next year.This is what Enduro is about! Having a laugh with mates, not taking life to seriously and NO LYCRA...Why is he being a knob? Because he has an opinion and he stated it. I come from the old school. Where you EARN the right to swing your dick. And if you get a DNF you shut your effing mouth and get back to training. I personally think that it is absurd that you people are turning Myles into a hero when he didnt finish the event. DNF. But that is MY opinion. I am entitled to it. Much as you are entitled to your opinion. So calling the guy a knob for stating his opinion makes you a knob in my OPINION.
