Yes they have, and in the most delightful ways.

more on topic, Here in GR, I see people of all races on bikes, but for the most part it's the white guys that go for all the -REAL- bike clothes, dress like lance lycra spandex whatever.


I've noticed that in the local bike shops, they seem to stereotype the customers, when I make a run to the local shops, the sales people always start talking 'comfort' bikes, I think the reason is that I'm normally wearing cutoffs, sandles, and Tshirt and don't own a stitch of 'real' bike clothes. Older people are also steered to them, (I'm a 46 year old longhair so they may classify me with the old folks)while younger people (euro and asian) are pointed at the higher end road bikes and the black guys seem to be pointed at the mountain bikes
