I refuse to accept the idea that everyone in the cycling community should fall in a particular line so as to not somehow misrepresent any of the rest of us to the "driving public" - a section of the public who, as Matt more or less points out, is so broad that as much as we cyclists might like to, cannot be narrowed into some sort of demographic specific enough to really gauge "public" reaction to such a small and infrequent event as CM. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
