An excerpt: "The out-of-state vehicle owners took advantage of Oregon's
relatively low registration fees by fraudulently registering their
vehicles in Oregon by falsely listing the address of a residence in
Oregon as the person's address, commonly known as a "mail drop," on the
application form. Also, because Oregon has no sales tax, if a person or
business uses a "mail drop" address that is located in Oregon when
purchasing a motor vehicle, then that person or business may, depending
on a particular state's tax law, avoid paying any sales tax that the
person or business would otherwise be required to pay in the state where
the person or business is actually located."

You RVers don't believe in paying your taxes and registration fees? Just
another indication of the RV bully attitude. Bully cyclists who are
operating legally on the roadway while driving RVs on which they cheated
on paying taxes and registrations. You people are something else.

Since you are neither Human nor intelligent, have no redeeming qualities,
and serve no useful purpose other than as an Al Queda recruit, you should
be eliminated as an unnecessary source of Carbon Dioxide by anyone who

I am not an RVer (yet) I have gone on a few trips and love it! I love the
fact that you state cyclist operating legally on the roadway! Fiscally, how
can you not! You don't pay taxes, you don't get a license! So you have to
operate legally! (At least on the fiscal side!) But, you still put wear and
tear on the roads, you SHOULD pay SOMETHING!

Oh, that's right, you DON'T operate legally! Look at all the trouble cyclist
cause by BULLYING people! Look at CRITICAL MASS in SF! It has become nothing
more than a terrorist group!

You should not list all people in a group as bad by the example of just a
few people!

All of the RVers I have meet seem to be very earnest and honest people, as
well as most of the cyclist I know.

Fedup by hypocrites and bigots,

Now, that's funny! Putting wear on the roads. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! I weigh
135lbs and my Cervelo R2.5 weighs 17lbs. So that's a grand total of
152lbs. And I'm wearing out the roads. You're too funny! As for my not
paying taxes, that's bullshit. I own a car and I pay fuel taxes,
registration fees, insurance. So don't tell me I don't pay taxes.

Critical Mass rides are legitmate use of the roadways by cyclists. They
are just partaking of their RIGHT to the roadways. They demonstrate that
cycles are traffic. Motorists are fond of saying cyclists block traffic
but they are too stupid to realize traffic can't block traffic. Duh!

> You should not list all people in a group as bad by the example of

You say this while making the statement above that cyclists don't
operate legally - meaning all cyclists. Can you say "hypocrite?"

I can't say that I've "met" (from a social standpoint) any RVers. The
ones I see are always in too big a hurry to slow down and drive safely
and courteously, let alone stop for a chat. My usual interaction with an
RV consists of some fat, rude, cigarette smoking, road-hogging loser
trying to crowd me off the road, honking his horn loud and long, yelling
at me to get off the road, throwing things like beer bottles or cans out
the window at me and just, in general, acting like an ignorant a.s. If
they are earnest and honest their actions certainly give no hint of it.

A rather large number of RV's I see on the road have bicycles on a rack.
 They are not only RV'ers but also cyclists.

I wouldn't call old, fat people who, slowly and with great effort, pedal
their obesity around the RV campground on fat-tired Wal Mart bargain
bikes trying to find other RVers who might happen to have extra hot
dogs, burgers or chicken on the grill in the hopes of being invited to
feed their fat faces, cyclists.

Those type don't ride bikes!!  They ride mopeds, vespas etc.  RV'ers are
now all old fat people?

Not all, but most. I have a tendency to make black/white statements
because I just figure folks might have enough smarts to realize I'm
making a generalization and, as such, one can validly assume there will
be some exceptions. But, I just hate always qualifying my thoughts and
statements with prefaces such as "as a rule, "mostly," "in general"
etc., so I don't.

If it will make you happier, "in general" most RVers are retired or
close to being retired baby boomers. I think you will find that
assumption valid if you check the demographics. And if you open your
eyes and take note of most people of that age you will find very few who
are not overweight, if not obese. Americans are gluttons. They eat like
pigs and they consume like pigs. RVs embody the pig mentality. More,
bigger, more comfy, more space for "conveniences," more luxuries, etc.
all of which translate to LESS exercise and more stuffing fat faces. The
result? Obese people. Admit it, very few people who are in good physical
shape could possibly enjoy being cooped up inside a large vehicle
driving down the road 8-12 hours a day. They would go stir-crazy. It
takes a lazy body to not protest a lack of exercise. Lazy bodies are
usually quite rotund to put it kindly. People who are lean and in shape
are that way because they are active. They run, cycle, hike, walk and
play hard. They don't sit around and drive. They use the energy their
bodies produce not energy they pump into a fuel tank.

Check out that photo I posted poking fun at some of the subscribers
here. http://www.carnadas.org/blog/wp-content/photos/obese.jpg You would
think morbidly obese women like those would be too ashamed to put on a
bikini and pose for a picture like that but Nooooooooo! They stand there
with huge rolls of fat hanging down almost to their knees with smiles on
their faces like they aren't the least bit ashamed. They didn't get that
disgustingly fat because they exercise or eat sparingly. No they got
that way sitting around stuffing their pie holes with whole pies, whole
hams, whole fried chickens, whole giant bags of potato chips, whole
cakes, whole 2-liter bottles of pop and on and on. What else can people
like that do for enjoyment but eat and sit in a large RV and watch the
world go by? They can't even fit in an airplane seat. They can't fit in
a bus seat. They can't even fit in the average-sized automobile. So,
what's the alternative? You guessed it, an RV and a very large one at
that...

Then you have no clue to the scope of RV'ing or you have narrowed what
an RV is to the huge motorhomes and massive 5th wheels.  That would be a
rather narrow scope.

"The overall U.S. population is getting older, and people are entering
the RV market at a younger age. In this decade, an average of 12,000
Baby Boomers per day will turn 50. What's more, ownership of RVs among
45- to 54-year-olds, the core of the Baby Boom generation, has risen 25%
since 1993. That's more of an increase than in any other age group.
Meanwhile, life expectancy is also increasing, lengthening an
individual's years of active RVing. The bottom line? The total
population in the RV segment is growing at a rate never seen before."

49 may as well be 50. That's old. Retired maybe not yet but fat
definitely. Look around and make an honest assessment of all the
fifty-year-olds you see. You won't see but one in a hundred who's not
fat. The women seem to be worse than the men, btw.

Like all of us, he seems to have his own agenda (cycling). With all

Duh! It means the demographic is getting younger. You have to ask
yourself, "younger than what?" Younger than the large group of fat
retired RVers now in evidence. You don't know how to read. Too funny.

It said people are entering the RV market at a younger age than before.
 Younger people are now buying RV's more so that in prior times.  Look
at the latest offering of RV's.  Many now have multiple bunk beds.  Bunk
beds for old fat retired folks?

Just What do you have against fat girls in bikinis? Dont we have the
right to wear one the same as our thinner counterparts? Just because
we are larger does that mean we should cover ourselves with blankets
simply to satisfiy narrow minded individuals like you who think beauty
comes in a neat little one size fits all package.

BTW, Most of the fat girls I know don't go RVing and prefer to travel
by any other means at their disposal. I for one would much rather fly
or drive and stay at a comfortable hotel.

Ha ha ha! Good one.

Sorry, but you left me such a good opening that I just couldn't resist
with my jab.  ;-)

I prefer sailing yachts for recreation. I sail a Swan 68 in the off
season which beats any roadgoing RV for luxury accommodation. And it's a
sailing yacht so it doesn't use a bunch of fossil fuels to pollute the
air. It's out in the freshest air in the world - ocean air. That's
something RVers don't like to think about. They are breathing polluted
road air the whole time. It's a wonder more of them don't come down with
cancer because of it.

Very nice, sailing's cool. But it doesn't explain your rabid dislike
for RVers and fat people.

So it has no back-up propulsion system at all?  I thought luxury
sailing yachts that size usually do.

I'm not going to dispute that with you but over time most RV travelers
probably inhale less tailpipe emissions on average than most people do
on their daily commute. Lets face it, most RVers ride the open road
for vacation and don't sit in bumper-to-bumper commuter traffic in
urban areas. So to use your logic, we should all be surprised that
people who work for a living don't come down with more cases of lung
cancer.

I thought you said you weren't fat? Oh, I guess you mean you're not some
youngster. . . You sound very young. I would guess you're a teenager who
is forced to tag along in your parent's RV hating every minute of it
because you can't be with your friends.

I guess you never read some of my earlier posts. I mainly hate RVs
because they try to run over cyclists. They hate cyclists because they
can bully them and think they don't belong on the roads. RVers seem to
think they own the roads and they don't like the fact that the law says
then have to share the road with other traffic. As for fat people, to
see them is to hate them, or rather, to hate what they respresent which
is gluttony, lack of will power, disregard for living a healthy life,
diseases like heart disease, diabetes, stroke, etc., ugliness of their
mishappen body, abuse of the human body in general and so forth. I just
can't see past that obscene exterior to what inner beauty they might
well possess. If they don't have any pride in themselves to such an
extent that they shorten their lives by abusing their bodies how can I?

It has an auxiliary engine for powering into and out of port or when the
wind doesn't blow but the engine is used sparingly. It does have a small
diesel generator for making electricity but that's not run all the time
either. It's much kinder on the environment than any road-going RV for
sure. And, it can accommodate a dozen people - more than most road RVs.

True, but ya gotta admit breathing clean ocean air is safer than
breathing even the air on an Interstate highway. And you've heard about
the danger of carbon monoxide fumes getting into houses so imagine how
much more gets into RVs that run generators for example when people are
inside. And lot's of RVs get stuck in city traffic when they drive
through them. Cities, in general, have poor air quality compared to any
ocean environment or even countryside environment. I just don't think
people realize how they shorten their lives living and breathing foul
air. I sometimes wonder how much asthma, allergies, emphysema, and other
lung problems are caused mostly by polluted air. And, nobody who lives
in clean air ever gets lung cancer. I don't think there is one
documented case of a Sherpa who didn't smoke ever getting lung cancer.
(Sherpas live on Mt. Everest where the air is very clean).

Maybe you should think about giving up RVing so you can have a healthier
and happier life? I'll give you the formula for free:

1)  Don't drive anywhere you can go in a timely manner walking, running
or cycling.
2)  Live out in the country in a part of the country where the air is
clean.
3)  Get plenty of sunshine on your whole body but use sunscreen so you
don't burn. Sunshine is vital for the body to produce vitamin D.
4)  Exercise your body so you balance the calories you eat with the
calories you spend exercising to maintain the correct weight.
5)  Your correct weight will be at least 20-30 pounds below that given
on weight charts. Weight chart ideal weights are fat weights.
6)  Stay out of motor vehicles as much as possible. Motor vehicles kill
and the pollution they make is unhealthy.
7)  Read your Bible and try to live by at least a few of the things you
read there.
8)  Have heterosexual sex regularly because sex is good for you but make
sure you have a faithful partner so you don't get diseases.
9)  If you have a job in a dangerous, unhealthy or stressful setting get
a different job that's healthy and safe and works your body and mind.
10) Drink tap water. Bottled water is an expensive rig-off often lacking
in vital minerals and often containing bacteria and other bad stuff.
11) Drink a couple glasses of red wine a day but don't overindulge any
alcohol beverage.
12) Don't smoke and avoid people who smoke (secondary smoke).
13) Go to the Tour de France and watch the professional cyclists. Note
how these professional male athletes are what human beings should look
like and should be able to do with their bodies.

Age 34. I've only been on one RV trip in my life with friends. Didn't

comfortable while traveling.

I don't know about RVs trying to run over cyclists but what is with
bike riders that ride two and three abreast on secondary roads? Are
they deliberately trying to get an a.s full of automobile fender or do
they just lack any form of common sense or are they just arrogant
elitist a.sholes in cheesy spandex with a me first kind of attitude

Don't preach. Even though some of your points may have some validity
to them, it is not for you to judge other people's life choices or the
personal mistakes they make. Many obese people would choose not to be
the way they are but find it very difficult to change. Acting like a
self-righteous, judgmental cretin solves nothing.

If you cannot see past the exterior of a person or see past their
habits to even glimpse what kind of person they are, then that's your
loss. Not everyone is going to fit into your neat little mold of what
ones priorities in life should be. How can you even presume to
understand what other people want out of life? I find your kind of
attitude incredibly arrogant and naive.

Thank you for the geography lesson Mr. Wizard. I don't know about the

Uhmmm.

I agree but exercise is for people who don't have 3 kids a husband and
a job. For me exercise is a luxury. I would love to take 20 or so
minutes out of each day to spend only on me but that would be very
selfish on my part. So I have to be satisfied with what I can get.

20-30? I'll give you maybe 5 or even 10! Only hard-core fanatical
runners or victims of anorexia are 20 or 30 pounds below their charted
ideal weights.

Tap water???? Ok, if you say so. I agree that bottled water is not

a tap is treated with chemicals just as heavily as most bottled
waters.

In a perfect world. But you don't have to be Lance Armstrong to be
fit. In fact isn't he afflicted with several forms of cancer? How
healthy is that?

How can you be comfortable doing anything if you're fat? Fat people even
have a difficult time sleeping because their fat clogs the throat and
gives them sleep apnea.

No, they are probably operating their cycles legally according to the
statutes on the books. Perhaps you should get ahold of the bicycle laws
in your state and read them. I've posted statute after statute here and
links to even more. Go back and read them why don't you. Stop sounding
ignorant like most of the other people in this group.

Don't tell me what to do. I'll preach if I so desire. I'm not judging.
Fat means gluttony. Gluttony is a mortal sin. That's Christian belief.
It's not judging for a Christian to state Christian beliefs. And obesity
IS a matter of choice. One chooses to eat too much and get fat or one
chooses to eat just enough and stay thin. So, I have to disagree with
you; fat people are fat because they don't have the will power to stop
eating more than they need to eat or exercise as much as they need to
exercise. It's a simple equation. Physical law. You can't deny it and
claim to be a thinking human being.

Their body tells me what kind of person they are. If they are fit and
healthy, it tells me they care about keeping their temple holy. They
appreciate their gift from God. They don't go about destroying it by
gluttonous behavior. If they are obese and diseased, it tells me they
don't give a hoot about keeping their temple holy. Fat people are
sinners against God. There's no other way a rational Godly person can
view it.

You have as much time as anybody else has. You have 24 hours each and
every day. It's your choice as to how you use them. So don't try to sell

It's easy enough to ride a bicycle twenty or thirty miles a day to
commute to and from work. How far from work do you live? If over fifty
miles than stay out in the country but get closer to your job or get a
job closer to where you live. It's a matter of choice yet again.

That's another good thing about living out in the country. You can get
out in the back yard with your bikini or even nekid and nobody is gonna
have to look at you if you're fat. And if you're thin, sexy and fit
people who see you will thank God for His creation abilities in making
such beauty and putting a brain into that head that also appreciates the
God-given beauty and consequently does not abuse it into obesity.

Well, then DO IT. You deserve at least an hour a day JUST FOR YOURSELF.
Make the old man take care of the kids for an hour and give yourself an
hour a day all for yourself to exercise or read or do whatever else
floats your boat as long as it's a healthy pursuit that will improve
mind or body.

[quoted text clipped - 3 lines]

Well, I guess I'm talking world class cyclists here. You've seen Lance
Armstrong, I'm sure. He's 5' 9" and weighs 150 in competitive trim.
He'll sometimes loose up to fifteen pounds during the Tour.  A 5'6"
competitive cyclist comes in between 125 and 135 pounds. The charts say
that height should weigh 150 or so and Lance 170 or so. Too much weight.
It hurts performance. For running, cycling and other extreme aerobic
exercise one needs to have a very low percentage of body fat. 5% max for
men. Maybe 10% for women or else they have menstrual problems because of
a hormone imbalance. Have you seen the bodies on those models the
Italians want to ban from the runways? They call them skinny, anorexic.
Bah! To me they look perfect. That's how any young woman SHOULD look.
It's only the fatties trying to make themselves look better in their own
eye when they call normal weight people skinny or anorexic. Look at it
this way. I, as a pro cyclist I can go faster and last longer than any
terrestrial animal on earth. I can go faster than a Cheetah, I can put a
greyhound to shame for speed and endurance. I can wear out and leave
miles behind any Iditarod sled dog which is one of the toughest animals
on earth. Thoroughbred horses are a joke either for sprinting or long
distance. God made humans to be the best. You can't be the best when
you're fat.

I'll pray for you. You may not need the word of God to know right and

please get ahold of a Bible and read the New Testament at least. Please
do and try to get a King James version as it's the most accurate.

Second hand smoke is never unavoidable. The minute you smell it, hold

Agreed. One can carry more weight than Lance and be healthy. But, one
can not be obese and be healthy. Lance had testicular cancer. It
metasticized and spread to his lungs and brain. By all rights he should
be dead. He let it go way too long before attending to it. But he's one
tough little mofo. He had brain operations and they took the tumors out.
He had searing chemicals to burn it out of his lungs that would have
killed any two normal people. He went this route because he didn't want
to give up professional cycling which he would have had to do if he had
parts of his lungs surgically removed. He had the cancerous testicle
removed. He's been cancer free now for five or six years. He's blessed.
God put him here for a reason - to be the best. To be an example to
others about staying power and what the human body can do even when
ravaged by disease. An example how it's a sin to take any gift from God
for granted.

This is not unique to RVers. There sevearal bussiness that are

low state corprate tax. In my area alone there is a lmoservice that
does this and they are far from Wyoming and have no limos there
either.

Well, if you had ever spread your legs and popped out babies, then let
them suckle your breasts until they ran dry, you'd be fat and your
breasts would sag too. I've seen both young and old obese men
(carrying quadruplets perhaps) who make pregnant women look like a
small cantelope...!

BTW, I'm not old, fat or retired, but I'm a full time female RVer and
happily so. I'm not rude, I don't throw beer cans out the window nor
do I demonstrate any of the tendencies or fit the derogatory
descriptions mentioned on this thread.

Turnabout is fair play.   It's been apparent from the very start when I
first posted here that RVers in general stereotyped cyclists as
operating illegally on the roadways so I proceeded to post laws that
proved their biased ignorance. It's also been apparent from the start
how most RVers have a bully attitude toward cyclists and several even
threatened murder which really proved my point. It's also been aptly
demonstrated how RVers look at cyclists as Spandex wearing weasels and
faggots. Their comments have proven their arrogance, ignorance and bully
tendencies. Not to mention their homophobia.

Not a very good slice of humanity if you ask me. So, if I make a
generalization that RVers are old and obese, is that so terrible
compared to what you RVers say about cyclists? Hardly.

I am sure there are two or three very attractive female RVers out there.
Maybe you are one of them. But if you've "popped out kids" you probably
have unsightly stretch marks that would turn a man off? And what about
that apeaseotomy thing?

But you are right about obese men. There is NO excuse for it. Obese men
are disgusting pigs. Women, at least, have a partial excuse since
pregnancy tends to gain them extra weight that's difficult to remove.
But, some moms I've seen look pretty darned sexy. You look at them and
have to conclude "Everything works." And, you see they have pride in
being a woman. You get this urge to jump their bones. They can be a mom
and a desirable sex partner to even the younger studs such as myself but
any real married mom would never jump in bed with a younger stud athlete
and violate her marriage vows. But, still, what a compliment for a mom
to know she's still so hot that young studs lust after her.

Maybe you are one of those? If so, you're one in a million. If so, post
a picture or a link to one.
