Okay Patriot I'm calling you out!! Do you not realize that some people are so time
deprived that if they didn't take their bike to the LBS they would never ride?
Imagine you are mom of a pre-schooler and a school age child. Now is it more important, to work on your ride or be with those kids? Sometimes it's all you can do to work the ride in. So should we spank all those women for not working on their bikes?
I think not. It's great that you have mechanical skills and then some but not all people
can do the same thing. Can you sew? Care for a small child with a fever? Host the perfect party? Know how to make small talk? Juggle 1,000 items without dropping one?
I say each and every one of us has own own skill set. Don't be so critical.
