Chuck,

You'll be glad to know that I'm calling it a day. I'm 41 and I can't remember the last time I was this disillusioned about something that started as an honest endeavour.

Now that I've learned you've added back-stabbing to your many other fine qualities, I no longer wish to be associated with a list that holds someone like you in such apparently high esteem.

I've had my differences with Mike Kone recently but we could have patched them up. Mike has sincerely held reservations about the British-French Group but he prefers to stab you between the eyes, which I respect.

I have enough problems in my life right now and can do without all the negativity, bad-feeling and hassle.

I'm just going to "retire" from the world of bike collecting and concentrate on finishing my projects and then riding them.

And Dale, you don't have to worry about me setting up another bike list: I've had enough of the whole thing.
