I get ya'll's point about art v. craft. Not that it matters a whit, but having performed on Broadway, yes, it took craft to get there but maybe a little art is what was produced.
Anyway, the replies have encouraged me to take the plunge. I have really made so many aspects of getting back into cycling about the ride and experience, this is just another part of the experience. So... I'm in. Much learned by all the responses. Not the least of which is ... Art? Yeah, that's some guy's name....
