Marc, I think you've convinced me that YOU are bikesnobnyc. And Jamie, it's not much of a bias to call bikesnob bitter. I think that's essentially his MO.

Anyway, I love this too. If trendoids & fashionistas want to ride bikes, please do. If they pack it away for the winter, I don't blame them. I'll keep riding, of course, but not everyone has that kind of fortitude. Biking is great. And if more people with more money to throw around start using bikes all the time, maybe the city & the country will begin to take notice, and we'll all be living in a great, happy bike utopia.

(btw, Marc MacLean & I are real-life friends, so I can razz him if I like.)
