that once you build enough motorized bicycles, you look at the big empty spaces in a V frame and think " wow they do complete the bike" thats how i am every time i look at a beach cruiser.

Every few months someone says this same thing. Everytime I see a bike without a motor I think man that thing is perfect for a motor. It even happens with ebike builders. A plain ole bike just looks unfinished.

Seems to be a common thing once the mind is reprogramed.

When I see someone pedalling, I think: "Sap"

I passed 6-7 of the "spandex" set coming back from visiting friends at another MB shop and stopped to rest a little at a city park and take in the view of the ocean. I got out of the bike lane a long distance before I got to them as respect for other riders. They caught up with me and stopped. Before I could even say hello, One yelled at me saying I can't ride "that thing" in the bike lane. I pointed at my chain guard and said this spells "Schwinn" in case you can't read sport. You folks ride safe, and left. Wonder if he had a "hissy"
