What you do when nobody is watching is who you truly are. That guy, the unwatched guy, is the one you want to perfect, not the roles one plays, the masks one wears, according to who is watching or listening. Just my two cents.
How does that relate in any way to the clown with the YouTube video? His opinion was not based upon watching you, and it would be unchanged, were you to ride a $500 bike 50 miles a day every day of the year, or a $5000 bike that you rode once every 6 months. You are what you are, and he doesn't impact that in the slightest degree, unless YOU choose to let him. And even then, he'd be totally oblivious to having had that impact on you.
