You sure about that. You should have been with me on my recent trip. I couldn't get away from people. It seemed like everytime I stopped and got off the bike someone wanted to talk with me about the ride. I've never had that experience before but this year was incredible. Admittedly, even here around home people are always looking at my homemade coroplast fenders. They definitely stick out like a sore thumb. They work great too.
