Dear Bob D'Antonio,

I really only know you through mountainproject.com, but I wanted to say thanks for giving me life back in my mountain bike goals. With the Falcon Guide Mountain Biking Denver & Boulder, which was the first book I bought when I moved to Colorado, I have found new meaning and strength in my biking skills technically and downhill. Well, maybe your book isn't completely the grail to my life achievements, but since I can reach out to the masses, I wanted to say thanks for my first mountain bike trail guide. I thought I read you were from or lived in Louisville, and that's where I live so we can hang at Henry's tavern anytime and I got the first round. Thanks really Bob for the hard work.

Robert Lee

oh,Bob

That's the nicest thing I've heard said about you in days.See isn't there a lot more love on this site? Super Topo where The famous and not so rich post.Its a shark tank. Bob you are a good writer and a good climber I hear,and even though I don't agree totally with you on somethings,I do give the repsect you deserve.keep up the fight. Oh, but ground up is truly the way to go.

Supertopo is more aptly described as a bunch of birds sitting on a ledge. Some birds fly off and do things, returning to a new part of the ledge, squawking their stories of fields of corn far away. Others simply sit and shit in the same place, getting weirder and weirder.

Tim,
Thanks for making me laugh for over 5 minutes. That is one of the funniest things I've read all week.

Yeah Tim, if you're not part of the "club" they pretty much ignore your posts. A lot of inside jokes that fly right past me. The main time I enjoy it is when there are posts from Jeff Lowe correcting historical perspectives.

can we get back to a gang-bang dry-humping Bob D's leg?

I'll hump to give this thread the bump.

I'll see your praise and raise you a couple dozen more. Bob D lived in Taos for just over a year and probably added 100 new routes to the surrounding crags which I am still trying to find and send. Dude has 'tude but he's no prude. Very genuine.

Bob,welcome home. Post up some Panama pics. Did you bag the Quetzal? Hugs to Laurel and the kids.

Mike, Erin and the boys.

maybe it's time for an appreciation of bob beer in boulder..?

7 on pearl anyone..? (bob's place)

Dear Bob D.

How the hell are you? Give me a call sometime, Big Guy. I'm getting a new road bike. To hell with MTB. :-)

Mark, you do have a way with words!!

Tim,

So true,So true

They were betting up on Bob pretty bad over there.

And you know,I know most of those so called famous 70' 80's guys.

We climbed at my home.

And I climbed with them in the valley.

Hung out, drank beer, smoked cigarettes (we all smoked back then)

Chased the Hippie girls you know had a good time

So I posted up just to say hey

And he acted like I was from anther planet

I was like hey its me, hello,hello is there anybody in there.

must be alhimmers or some shit.

sorry dude

I'll let you get back to your click, Mr.EGO

What a Betty.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I like the Supertopo. And since I don't have any history with those guys, it really goes over and around me. I hang with a few of them around here and some over there and that's about it. Ouch is what keeps that place fun, and Werner of course.

I don't Climb 5.12 anymore, getting a bit older now.

And I bet some of them don't ether.

but they sound like they do.

I have met and climbed with some really cool people from this site.

theres a bunch good people here.

Bob;

Doug is a good guy. I'll check it out.I'm sure the route they did is in good style.

Hey, I went climbing with Sims the other day.

Is was cool.

We Gonna do something on El Cap. in the fall.

If we are going to discuss other climbing forums, I would
say RC.COM would be the biggest waste of bandwidth I have
encountered almost anywere on the net. This and ST are light
years better IMHO.
