Excuse List

     The excuse list is a numbered list of excuses that
     regularly get used by those who need a reason to
     justify wimping out of a bike ride.  The list,
     though widespread, was originally titled CJ EXCUSES
     for the benefit of CJ (Charles Jackson).  The list
     continues to grow and is maintained by Rick Burrows.

     Note to Roger (no show) Papesh:  Pick one from the list!
