Meh i ride places with my girlfriend and since i moved to Holland from England there are a LOT more bikes here. Seriously they're everywhere! lol.

I was a bit of a loner myself in high school, for almost the same reasons (poor family, etc) but it didn't really bother me, if anything i look back at them with pity, it made me a stronger person that doesn't take crap off people so in a way i'm thankful, if that sounds right.
