Dear Sirs, I read, with horror, about my suspention, Although I didn't see the paragraph asking for contact name Address, Phone number, zip code, social security #, birth date, mothers maiden name, Banking information and Visa #. Or how much it will cost to get back on?

Also missing was the paragraph about how I can recieve a ceritfied cashiers check and when your shipping agent would be by to collect the overage and inspect my collection. I realize that being a forign minister from Nigeria and traveling the globe, to find the heir to the $69,000,000US that is unclaimed, takes alot of your time , but , I really would like to buy my way back on . Please send your "best price" and I will have the funds ready for your agent in the form of a Cashiers Check drawn on a Haitian offshore bank.

I am now taking to the crusher all bikes that are even close to 21 years old . I will viedo their accual destruction for verification.

I have just suppended all my memberships in all other mailing lists , but the CR. I am having a blocking program installed so I cannot access anything but the CR so I will reduce my chances of being tempted. This will cause havock with my current Ebay auctions, but, this is a small price to pay.

Yours in cycling
