That WOULD be a good question if anyone was telling you NOT to ride a recumbent. But after all the threads from you on this topic, I have yet to see anyone do that. So, it's not that we're 'anti-bent', but rather that we just don't give a rip about them. We find our bikes wonderfully functional and efficient as they are, and don't feel any need to switch.

It's one thing to say, "Hey, everybody! I found this new thing that's really great and I wanted to share how much I like it!" and quite another to KEEP SAYING "Hey everybody! I've found this wonderful thing! And if you don't all adopt it, it's because you're closeminded!!!"
