    I didn't read any insult..... probably because I know most people think everything on the net sounds mean, its typically not meant to be, so I always look at it as a positive interaction unless extraordinarily obvious to the contrary.

    Who me?
    I let some ponzi schemer on the interwebs fill my head with all the glory of a bike I'd never seen or ridden. As any good ponzi accomplishes I ended up sending thousands of dollars to unknown people in another state with the hopes it turns into riches many times over.
    Monetarily I never did get the huge returns, but in fun, laughs, giggles, sweat, tears, cursing and sore muscles I was paid in immeasurable sums.

    To me the best bike is the one you don't know is there.

    I rode yesterday for about an hour and a half with a friend, and though I wasn't on a technical trail, and wasn't pushing myself physically, I can honestly say that I don't recall being on a bike. I didn't think about it, I wasn't aware of it, I just rode as easily as if I was walking down the street.

    The student becomes the teacher, or some contortion of that.
