Surprise! Betcha didn't expect a quiz! Well, you know what to do. As always, study the item, think, and click on your answer. If you're right then great, and if you're wrong you'll see a new spin on an '80s stand-up comedy motif.
Thanks for reading, ride safe, and if you attempt to defect this weekend make sure you're running the correct tire pressure first.

190. Any kind of social conflict helps to destabilize the system, but one should be careful about what kind of conflict one encourages. The line of conflict should be drawn between the mass of the people and the power-holding elite of industrial society (politicians, scientists, upper-level business executives, government officials, etc.). It should NOT be drawn between the revolutionaries and the mass of the people. For example, it would be bad strategy for the revolutionaries to condemn Americans for their habits of consumption. Instead, the average American should be portrayed as a victim of the advertising and marketing industry, which has suckered him into buying a lot of junk that he doesn’t need and that is very poor compensation for his lost freedom. Either approach is consistent with the facts. It is merely a matter of attitude whether you blame the advertising industry for manipulating the public or blame the public for allowing itself to be manipulated. As a matter of strategy one should generally avoid blaming the public.
i claim podi yeller as ted doesn't count
Third. Slightly behind Hillary.
i donna know snobbie

Burn your New Balance sneakers in protest?
Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!
Friday quizzes create too much pressure.
N/A
just what quiz pressure you runnin?
Them's some serious bike handling skills in the old timey bike polo video...with liberal use of early bum bars
Chain slap is an all to often problem, someone fix it already. If we going to talk about crap other than bicycles let's pray tour de trump comes back, he saved cycling in the u.s. back when don't u know.
How in the world do you plat bike polo without dick breaks? They lived to tell the tale. They are hardy as coal miners.
Drock,
They have fixed chain slap.
--Wildcat Etc.
1 bar. That is how I handle the quiz pressure. I take it to 1 bar. Sometimes I'll go to a second bar, but not as much as I used to.
Special Surly theme bonus video.
I like the Surly version, bucket ball, better. Last man standing wins.

Dang, unprepared for pop quiz. How the hell am I supposed to know, or even care, what Pense, or Spence, or whatever his name is, was doing? We're focused on more important things down here
Instead, the average American should be portrayed as a victim of the advertising and marketing industry, which has suckered him into buying a lot of junk [TRUMP] that he doesn’t need and that is very poor compensation for his lost freedom.
Cannabis stocks listed on the Nasdaq continued to rally on Wednesday after voters ended prohibition and approved the recreational use of marijuana in California, Massachusetts, Maine and Nevada while Arkansas, Florida and North Dakota adopted medical marijuana laws.
Arizona rejected its measure for recreational use while Montana voters approved a measure to improve access to medical marijuana providers.
I thought chain slapping was a double entendre. (like the alliance between UK and France)
An unexpected quiz at the end of the week - time for a ride.
"Mr. Trump’s transition team includes corporate executives, consultants and lobbyists — roles he said during the campaign exert too much influence in Washington."
You stupid fucks
Ride therapeutically all!
"How in the world do you plat bike polo without dick breaks?"
The game is the Bonus Video is bicycle soccer, not polo. Bike polo is played with mallets.
Bike water polo is played with mallards.
RIP Robert Vaughn.
Jeez, everybody is dying this week.
ACED QUIZ
Boccer video was great. Handling skillz indeed.
See ya next week unless you move to Canada. BikeSnobMontreal...BikeSnobQuebec...just doesn't have the same ring to it.
RIP Napoleon Solo.I guess at this point,he'd have been "The Man from Great U.N.C.L.E.
forgot the additional ".
Goin to hell in a handbasket.
FUNQ UIZZ
RIDE NICE
The joke about Citoyen Sachs was too soon, Snob. Velo Orange just announced that their latest frame is going to be disc only.
As Mr. Snob reminded us a number of years ago, today we honor our nation's proud veterans by selling mattresses at steep discounts.
Wait until the red ecks figure out trump is a dem
Not Podium! Now to wait for my gift of #Not MyPresident cycling socks to arrive in the mail

don't touch my junk
Aw shit, Snobby!
You can't be posting such fascinating videos like the bike soccer fellows without telling us the who what why where when etc...
I can't blame you for not caring or trying anymore, but I didn't think American society would collapse so quickly.
President-elect Donald Trump says he may not pursue a full repeal of ObamaCare upon taking office.
Anonymous 4:01,
It's called Radball and is UCI-sanctioned. I've mentioned it before and figured people knew what it was.
--Wildcat Etc.
Just what kind of pressure do I need to run to do that bikeyball thingy?
Kort
I've seen that picture of John McCain doing his sweet skid a bunch of times, but I had no real idea what he was actually doing. This VIDEO* cleared it all up for me. It's easily some of the stupidest shit I have ever seen - and I used to "race" cyclocross, so I thought I had a pretty good idea of stupid.
*I am sure that there are about 10,000,000 fixie trick videos of the YouTube. I chose the first one I saw figuring it must be fairly representative.
Okay, thanks.
And sorry for not noticing your previous mentions of it. Now that America's gonna be great again, I'll pay more attention.
One cheezee election question the PSI the VP Elect uses for his Tahoe XL. That's it?
What about the KKK? They tend to meet out in the woods. Probably ride to meetings on Off Road Bikes, but what PSI do they use in the backwoods of North Carolina. Sandy soil, so not to high I'm guessing. Research by the Snob needed.
weed.
Those kids had some RAD SKILLS* back in the day (or wherever they fall on the dachshund of time).
*Didn't know how to spell "skillz**" back then.
Don't worry, Pence will crack down on that.
What an ego...naming a bike race after yourself. The Tour de Trump: the race started at his toes and finished at his head?
Those second amendment "jokes" not so funny to Trump now that mobs are protesting and the idiot fringe are calling for his head
Bring on the pitchforks and torches
Went fishing yesterday. Up in Sodom, at the corner of Sodom and Sodom
Tell me les tell me

dop,
Were ya'll catching Brown-eye snapper on 6" trouser worms?
I'm a Christian, a conservative, a Republican and a Fred, in that order
Trump went fishing in the swamp and be darned if he didn't land himself a consummate Washington insider. He also announced plans to replace the US currency with German Marks from the 1930's.
Telling that Pence was signaling a right turn
What would be worse, if Trump breaks every election promise he made, or if he fulfills them?
So did Wildcat just say, "fuck it" and load up the ol' Hyundai with the family and head for America's tweed cycling cap?
Thank you very much for today because it has provided a very useful information .
