That's a point that I was going to make too.

I personally have no interest in such things because I think of bicycling as being an exercise and fun kind of thing. Consequently, my first thought was, "What's the point?".

There are those folks, however, who rely on bicycles for low cost day-to-day transportation and who have no interest in bicycling for exercise. I suppose they'd think that my collection of bikes is kind of dumb.

I guess that freedom requires us to tolerate both points of view.
