From the bottom of our hearts, and on behalf of everyone at Velominati, we wish you a very Happy Holidays and as such issue a temporary suspension of Rule #11.
I’d like to thank everyone for coming around to our little corner of the world to spend your valuable time as part of the community; without you, none of this works. Thanks for helping to make 2011 a success. Here’s to 2012.
We wish you a Merckxy Christmas, and a Coppi New Year.

@Keepers and all the other VMH: Merry Festivus and thanks for allowing me to hang around here and flip out/ have gender identity issues and for everything that I learn.
A bunch of great friends most of whom I've never met in person (save McSqueek and Gaswepass). Look forward to to coming year around here, and the chance to make a run at the VSP title.
Cheers!!
Interpret my dream: I had a dream this morning that I saw a nice bike on a rack on the back of a car so I stopped to check it out and then I noticed a girl in the car changing into cycling kit and she was putting on a Velominati jersey. She got a little spooked when I rode up to the side of the car but then I showed her the Velominati "decal" on my bike and she settled down. I tried talking to her but she had a speech impediment and I couldn't understand anything she was saying. Then I woke up.
@Marko

A happy NEW YEAR of riding to all Velominati and thanks to the Founders and Keepers for a great website and community.
Elder sister bought me an Amazon voucher so spent it on "Italian Racing Bicycles: The People, the Products, the Passion" by Guido P. Rubino. Published by VeloPress in Hardcover (all your great cycling books should be hardbacks !).
Not received it yet but from the write up and reviews it sounds great. Covers just about every italian marque I know plus some I have never heard of. A future WORK ?
@Roadslave
Great moment! I won't compete, but will offer the following from yesterday morning. From the littlest Steampunk: "Dad, can we take a break from opening presents? I want to go out and ride my bike."
A mild day in the south of England. Would have been nice to go for a ride but I needed to move a large pile of bricks.
Very aerobic and exercised muscles I do not much use when cycling so should be good for me, but suspect I shall spend the rest of the week with a bad back.
...and Season's best to one and all"”thank you all for such great camaraderie in 2011. No sugar plums dancing, but visions of Wisconsin, Ontario, and 200 on 100 cogals instead. 2012 will be a good year.
A very merry Christmas and happy new year to all Velominati!
Very thankful to have discovered this place. Thank you for all your hard work. It's a rare day I don't find myself here reading and being completely entertained!
