OP's all caps signaled to me he was making a joke. And I was not endorsing an anti-freewheel bias, just stating the fact that BF is full of people who are bike aficionados/snobs.
All caps is generally considered yelling, not joking, and your statement had the appearance of taking him seriously as well. There was not LOL or smiley, so I took it seriously. Forgive me if I overreacted, but I still disagree with your observation that such a comment would be applauded by "most" of those who hang out here. As far as being on a high horse, my point was not to brag but only to show how wrong such a viewpoint can be.
