Err...just an observation:
Randy, I've noticed you always say "bicycle" or "bicycles" instead of "bike" or "bikes," sorta like some broadcasters always say National Football League instead of NFL.
In days gone bye, I used to restore and/or customize (chop) antique motorcycles. I wrote a book about how to do this on a tight budget. That book,
Half Price Harley, was published in 1987. So...
For me, there is always the conflict between motorcycle (bike) and bicycle (bike). Two completely different things, in this instance. In the NFL (see, I can do it) example, both the name and the acronym mean exactly the same thing.
Besides, to me the word "cycle" is melodious and I like the way it rolls (pardon the pun) off of my tongue.
Does any of that make sense?
