I saw at least a dozen other riders on my way to work. And a Moots!!!

When I got to work, my new ride (Giant Bowery) got scorned by a guy in the building. He said "oooh a racing bike". Huh?? Then I got, "well, it's a single speed, it isn't like you live in London or something". Not sure why it bothered me so much, just kinda seemed like reverse snobbery, you know? I figure the more riders the better - no matter what kind of bike you're on.
