Because I am clearly superior, burning exactly the same amount of energy riding my unassisted bike.

It all comes down to the Us vs. Them dynamic, and the basic insecurity of most people..........................................................................................Ther e is a dedicated road bike forum, but most people here discuss road bikes, and no one freaks out.

Basically what we have here are weak, small-minded, insecure, and ungenerous people using any available excuse to kick someone they perceive as being weak, while flexing their muscles and bragging how strong they are.

Wow ... suddenly we don’t sound so superior .....
