bike boom
There is a bike boom going on now during the plague lockdown.....everybody wants a bike it seems just to ride around the neighborhood with the kids....get some exercise and some fresh air and sunshine get out of the house........they dont want to race anybody or run time trials or drive down mountains or drive through mud and snow and sand...not interested in grinding gravel or climbing in the Pyrenees........dont want to do wind sprints or work on their Strava time....if you mention ..carbon ....hydraulic brakes ...electronic shifting 1X10 gearing .....trail....frame geometry clipless pedals.......they look at you as if youre from the Alderon system......yes its true........they just want to ride around the block and maybe stop for coffee and a scone......PS....they are not 70
