I could, this is Portland, they put fenders on carbon Kestrels and commute with them. Doesn't mean its right and it doesn't mean everyone does it. Some things are simply wrong.

I like to think of it as a training bike. I'm much better when I ride in the Alps on the MTB now!
There are eyelets on the and rear, nothing on the triangle.
Essentially it's a fun bike to commute on and is cheap to run which I like.
I kind of a piece of crap though and no track would allow it grace its surface.
I am impressed that you have a strong opinion for once, usually you're quite a pushover!
