I see there's a FB group called 'Cruzbike Recumbent Riders,' but...there seem to be a lot of anti-recumbent people on there. That's not something Cruzbike has any affilitation with then, I take it...??
Yeah, that was the posting. I see now, he thinks he was talking to CB. Hmm. There's another group, "Cycling for Seniors -- 65 and Older" in which I had a similar, more extreme exchange just this evening. Egalitarian paternalist fella who doesn't like recumbents and thinks I and the rest of the world ought to be protected from them because he knows what's good for us better than we know what's good for us. Hmm.Dont mind them braddah. Most of the members are good. I think he didn't understand that your video was yours, and not an ad for CB. Also, it seemed he ignored that virtually all bikes are wobbly at similar speeds, some more than others.
I was going to reply to your post on the CB page on FB, but I deleted my comment. Some people are just naturally graceful and know how to diffuse situations while teaching numbskullz there are better ways to do stuff. Those are amazing skills I love to witness and I wish I had those skills, but I'd need a serious knock on the nogging to reboot everything. I am not a member of that group yet, but I am sure he'd hate me.Yeah, that was the posting. I see now, he thinks he was talking to CB. Hmm.
