Wrong, Mr. Tricycle Rider. In response to your "no documentation"
whining I did document some of my achievements. Then you whined "You're
posting that just to brag."

 
Sorry, but proclaiming that some unnamed people say that you know what
you're talking about is not documentation.
 

Go back to pretending you don't care what I post.

 
None of the following is documentation. All of it is undocumented
bragging

IIRC, I've linked to a newspaper article by the editor of the regional
newspaper, describing his ride to work under my instruction.

<LOL> Riding to work is documentation of what?  That you ride to work?
That someone else will pay attention to you?

I've linked
documentation of my PE license.

You claimed two PE licenses.

I've linked to detailed narration of my
coast to coast tour.

*Your* narration is not documentation, silly little man.

Someone could have written that from their couch without asking for
someone to hold their beer.

I don't doubt that you did it, but really, it was something many other
ordinary persons could do if they had the time and inclination.

I don't what else I may have documented over the
years, like several other news stories, bike related articles I've had
published (including internationally),

Publishing your stories and articles is only documentation that you
know how to get your stories and articles published.  I'll give you
that.

my photos in _Bicycling!_
magazine, etc.

?????

There's quite a lot to choose from.

I've seen nothing that documents your suggestions that you have
bicycle "skills" beyond what the vast majority of bicyclists, me for
instance, have.

I can document much more, although the moment I do, you'll label it
"just bragging." So it's really not worth the effort.

Perhaps you should learn the difference between documentation and
brags.

What you say you've done is not documentation, it's a brag.

What you say some unknown person says about you is not documentation,
it's a brag.

Published stories and articles that you wrote about yourself are not
documentation, they are brags unless they have proof.

Documentation is when you provide proof of what you've done, not when
you say you've done it.

Now please remind me what _you_ have documented.

People who don't brag don't need to provide documentation.

All I recall is a fuzzy
photo of _some_ guy that you claimed showed your then-muscular legs
decades ago! That was funny!

It served its purpose of shutting you up about me being overweight.

As I said, you can return to pretending you don't care what I post. All
while yapping at my online heels like a less intelligent chihuahua.

It looks to me like you waste more bandwidth yapping at the online
heels of Mr. Kunich like a less intelligent chihuahua.

and then there's this where you slip in an undocumented brag in thread
about brakes.

BTW, there's been talk here that I ride only pancake flat areas. Last
week my daughter took me on a new ride route. The handlebar mounted
inclinometer she had given me some years ago was reading over 16% for
stretches. I admit, it nearly killed me. But my brakes did just fine.
In fact, as usual, I never even thought about them.
