Ridecamp: Re: [RC] freedom of speech,,, accusations and Sheath Cleaning

I think you guys really need to be careful what you are saying. No where 
does it say that this list is for adults only which means you need to 
assume that there are kids reading this stuff too. There are a lot of 
people on Ridecamp, and if you are offending a large percentage of those 
people, you might want to consider toning it down. I think this list was 
intended for endurance riders to talk endurance riding with other endurance 
riders. I don't think anyone wants to hear anymore about the subject of 
sheath cleaning and if there is a group of you who do, form your own list 
and talk about it there.

And please, nobody bother privately sending me any disgusting emails. I saw 
the ones Sylvia received from amber and Colleen and that was enough to 
thoroughly gross me out.
