I have tried several times to post my trip report from yesterday, it
won't post. I can post other messages, and to other google groups from
my google account, but not my report, I don't get it, maybe there is
some word or combination of words that is stopping it, I don't know,
looks innocent enough to me. Oh well, maybe tomorrow...

Well, that is the first time I heard of Google censoring posts based
on content. Especially for such mild content. The paragraph I removed
had the words "c and rap" as well as 'bull sh and the i and t"
together.
Anyway, here was the "offending" paragraph, cleaned up a little. Very
little, but apparently enough to make the grade..
<SNIP>
Bike snobs;) So before we found out we could not enter there was the
typical little butch fat kid standing there with his friend talking
about my kids "piece of c*** pocket bike" loud enough for us to hear
it, and as we were loading up his uncle (not really but another guy),
you know the type. More proud of the money he spent than his kids,
goes to the gym regularly to see if he can make his shoulders wider
than his gut;) Comes over and starts telling me that we can't ride
this bike in NETRA anyway. After a few questions from me like "what
component makes it illegal" and "it is set up exactly like his kids
bikes just a little taller with a little longer shock travel" he
finally admitted that it was only because it was not one of the top
five manufacturers.. Bul***** they just don't want to see a chinese
bike whip the factory rides.. He continues on to say I probably waited
too long to start my kid racin', "my kids have been racing for 4
years" he adds, practically patting his wallet... b * d... Anyway,
after that guys leaves feeling oh so proud, the origional guy (one of
the club members) who helped me with the tire comes back and I ask him
the same questions. He looks the bike over and says "no reason this
bike can't race NETRA, it's set up exactly like the competition". Then
he adds "put a bunch of honda stickers on it and tell them you
modified it" with a grin and we are off.
<\SNIP>
again, I was not aware that google censored such slights, it that just
this group?
Anyway, vacation is almost over, gonna' go annoy some fish and check
out the local swimming hole.. Scotty that's all for now I think...

I think the guy who said you can't race a Chinese bike in NETRA is probably
full of crap and bullshit.
