Once it hits you just are pumping your tires and ready to ride while everyone is waiting in line at the shop.

I know we can be snarky here, myself included but overall a message to get your bikes ready is not bad. Unleash on someone when they actually post something bad not when they are giving decent advice.
It’s recycled material. And people should do what they want to do. Besides, how long does it take to get a bike ready to ride? I didn’t ride a bike for almost a year. I pumped up my tires and I oiled my chain and went for some rides later fall.
