I don't think it's necessarily a male/female thing, or a young/old thing. Some people just don't appreciate "old" things and wonder why you are wasting all this time fixing up an old bike when you can go down to Wal-Targ and get a brand new one.

And some folks like the "idea" of having/riding a bike, as long as it's just an idea. When the idea presents itself as reality, then all the sudden they have second thoughts.
