true.

personally, i don't see a big reason to get worked up over any of this. i couldn't have gone "hey, major taylor is awesome" in 1899 because i wasn't around then. i couldn't have done it in 1999 either, cuz i didn't know jack crap about bicycling then. now that i've learned about major taylor and eddie merckx, et al, i can. i think that's all it is for many of us here as well.
