You posted an admittedly inspirational but completely irrelevant item about a disabled racer. Try to stay on topic.
My post was far more relevant to the thread topic of personalizing a bicycle, than 90% [estimated] of the posts on this list; Posts which are neither related to bicycling nor living car free nor living car light. Instead the posts are predominately anti car/ anti car owner/ counter culture political and economic rants that are far more appropriate to P&R , Foo, or Trollheim lists.
I did post something positive and inspirational about the good people of NYC supporting a bicyclist in need and helping him customize his body as well as his bike. And YOU raise a Red Flag of Relevancy? On this list? Yours is possibly the dumbest post I have ever read on BF, and that is quite an achievement.
