I asked you directly above “how do you see Ernie’s honesty, I just pointed out the inaccuracies, you decide if it was deliberate or not, and if so why would they make stuff up?”
Oh right. I haven’t followed your exchange with Ernie, have no interest in doing so, and believe that he is perfectly capable of speaking for himself. Frankly, it’s a bit weird that you want me to pass judgement, but maybe it’s all part of the pile on you’re imagining.
I also noted I’d declared my experience, you still haven’t. To me you’re just a random on a bike forum, why would I believe you when your accuracy so far has been off?
I’ve already declared as much as I’m prepared to do on a public forum. I’m politically restricted and it wouldn’t be difficult to work out who I am. I’m not particularly bothered whether you believe me or not and I’m comfortable that I’ve accurately described my experience.
