Wonder all you like...or not. I was enough of a
"contributor" to
be a

Windoze beta tester for many years and iterations, starting
with
the

crappy 20-diskette distros and the once a week updates.

Lying again.......

No, he might have gone to a conference.... like everyone else
but I
doubt it cause he lied that time about getting the upgrade three
weeks
before the real release...

It isn't surprising that you apparently think the only way to
become a
Microsoft beta tester was to attend a conference. There were and I
presume still are many ways and within beta testing, there were
groups
testing different aspects of distros and sometimes at difference
times.

The "real release." What a laugh that is.

I think Scott sometimes has difficulty accepting anything that is
outside of his personal sphere of knowledge or experience. He
seems to
think that riding a 850+ lb Harley UltraClassic or Honda
Goldwing is
the same as riding a modern cafe' racer or dirt bike. We slow
down to
take sharp turns and corners. :-)

And you seeem to read things the way you want to see to it you
have an
arguement... If you read my posts, I acutally posted last night
after
some research that you guys are probably right... But of course if
you
acknowledge that post, you can't troll and feel all superior..

No offense Scott but I stopped thoroughly reading your posts on this
subject after about the 5th or 6th one that just kept repeating the
same
thing. Your riding and styles don't apply to everyone. I don't
steer a
bike with the back tire, nor do I go airborne, pull wheelies or am
focused on saving a tenth of a second through a turn. The discussion
basically started with a comment about counter-steering in very
general
terms.

You guys are like my buddy.. If he has done something, he can't be
wrong.. if he has never done it, I can't be right.. even if I
have..... Either way. making a turn on a dirtbike and a GPX bike are
similar enough... leave out the wheelies and jumps... All I am saying
is, of the three of us, I am the only one who has substantial hours on
both street and dirt bikes... maybe you give a "bit" of deference to
that remembering that (and you have to stipulate to this) that I have
trained one of the most technically accurate riders in the NE... And
Jess and I card is quickly being filled for training young riders this
summer based on what folks see my rider do....

Again, I will stipulate that you can indeed start a turn with a
countersteer but you don't have to. But still, once you are in the
corner both street and mx, you are not countersteering...

Good frekin' grief Scott. Nobody ever said you can't turn without
consciously counter steering. Taking a corner is a pretty natural
thing
to do. The original comment I made was riding a bike *straight* and
pushing on the left or right handlebar to demonstrate what counter
steering was about. Since then all you have yakked about is all the
racing techniques, steering with the back tire, keeping the back tire's
thrust in line, and shaving a tenth of a second off a corner. All, as
if they anything to do with the original comment.

If that's all you heard, you were reading with your heart and not your
brain.. sorry...

Don't think so. I understand how gyros work. You don't.

Right.... you are totally superior. Glad I was never one of your
teachers.... you don't listen well... I accepted the gyro theory
yesterday, understood it well.. John said "through" a corner that was
the debate, you are just spewing and listening to yourself....

LOL. Go ahead Scott. Make a fool out of yourself.
I give up trying to provide any helpful information.
