Hear hear! Hipsters must die! (only joking).
Nah seriously, Clipless and clips are somewhat different beasts and though i tend to agree that clipless makes a lot more sense in many applications this does not always hold.
Also clipless can be expensive. I still feel PowerGrips kicks clips ass all over the place in (almost?) every way and they are affordable to boot...
If you do use gear solely for a fashion statement towards others there is another qoute that might serve:
"The Race is Long, and in the end it is only with yourself".
Then again qouting this type of *beep* is kindoff a hipster thing to do isn't it...?
*Clutching Chest Frantically* OMG Help me! Get them off me!! I,.. i... am turning into... Them!!
