Thanks DF. Coming from you that means a lot to me.

In retrospect, that prior post of mine seems a little on the snarky side. Apologies for that.

Where I wanted to go with it was that the dictionary definition of "dedicated" says, wholly committed to something, as to an ideal, political cause, or personal goal. Thus, a dedicated cyclist would be "wholly committed" to cycling.

It seems to me that a car owner or driver would be less than "wholly committed" to cycling. They could be very committed, or even extremely committed, just not wholly committed, and so, not dedicated.
