Wow this thread got smug in a hurry.
I will never understand cyclists having disdain for how other cyclists choose to commute.

But hey, I love riding because it makes me smile. Being with friends going somewhere is fun. Riding with my kids is fun. Grocery shopping with a trailer is fun. Riding to work is fun.

More people riding and enjoying the activity should be encouraged, not met with contempt.

Yup, people don't want to ride when it's raining or icy out. Let's rip on them for that!
