There are ~40 middle class households on my street and my wife and I are the only adults that ride at all, and it's quite rare to see any kids on bikes. I think no more or less of any of them because of that, nor do I care. I would never presume to proselytize about cycling. I've gone various periods of many years without cycling, doing other things. My life was no less rich, and perhaps even richer, because of it.
