I think that *is* the true meaning of CM. It makes cycling look fun with the goal of getting people to get the old bike down off the hooks in the garage and give 'er a go. We had a guy ask us what we were doing Friday and we told him about CM, and invited him to next month's ride. He gave us a thumbs up and said maybe he would. He was at least 70. I thought it was pretty cool.
