I guess riding across the minus whatever, snow and ice covered darkness on studded tires with fenders generator hubs and lights isn't their magazine ad.

A rider came up beside me, asked about the bike, then asked why anybody would want a bike like that? I said, " I can take this to the grocery store, ride a metric century comfortably, or take a trip over the Himalayas. What can you do with that?" (pointing to his crabon crotch rocket). He just shook his head and rode away. I passed he and his crew of spandex hamsters after the second rest stop. They tend to start loosing it at 30 miles. One of these days I'm going to do one in a pair of cutoffs (diamond gusset), a nascar t shirt and Cubs batting helmet just for fun. I might even roll a pack of Winstons up in my sleeve for good measure.

Anymore, while I can certainly find the carbon roadie types, they aren't living in the niche. Just like the "extreme" downhillers or whatever they are called. I just don't see a lot of riders so focused on 25mm tires that don't also accept the benefits of a fatter tire Not true where I am in Silicon Valley . If I show up at the start of one of my (touring) club's rides, a ride meant for people riding a moderate pace, and I see twenty other riders, there will be one steel bike, and I'll be riding it. There will be no bikes that take tires wider than 28 mm, other than my Roadeo. Typically riders have 25 mm tires pumped up rock hard. Everyone will have lycra shorts including me (haven't found anything else that works for me) and everyone else will be wearing roadie jerseys with sublimated graphics. There's one club ride I go on, an easy-paced ride that I do for camaraderie. Most of the riders are like me, over 50, in a lot of cases well over 50. But there is one young woman who shows up on an old Stumpjumper with flat bars, wearing street clothes. Although she has no trouble keeping up, and she has a fine bike, almost every time she has shown up at a ride I'm on someone will explain to her that her bike is wrong and she needs a different one. -- -- Anne Paulson It isn't a contest.
