I can only come up with two arguments:
1. Hipster/Tarck Hate
2. People are disgruntled because if they are posting in forums, they are not riding their bikes.
This is an online message board. Like any other forum or subforum, come with kevlar vests, riot shields, and mustard gas.

You will find that almost all forums have "those guys" in them. Generally as the age of the users increase, the maturity level does as well.
