When I am on a club ride on my Rans Stratus, I do feel like I am the king of the road. I am rolling along in relaxed comfort on my two wheel Caddy. Most of the rest of the DF riders are rolling along on a Ford Pinto.

And then------------no matter how DF riders claim that with their "proper fit", when we come to a rest stop, it is not me that immediately jumps off my bike and shakes out my hands and start picking at my laundry. Yup those DF riders are really comfy ok!!!

Also what makes riding a bent even a better deal is if we have to ride into a wind for a lot of miles. Even at 73 when on a high wind ride, when we get back I am in a lot better state than DF riders a lot younger than I am.
