Because I haven't seen anyone in here call another user a moron for riding Trek and not Specialized? It's all about just being on a bike, right?
Plus when some one does a 30 mile ride in about three hours and gets excited, it's nothing to call a person out on or call BS on. In fact, that's not very special to most of the "real cyclist" out there, but damn is that an accomplishment for some of us.
