while out riding my motorized bicycle I passed this guy coming up one of the many mountains on the island. he said that is bs and a few other things as I passed so I got to the top of the hill and waited for him. I asked him so you do not like motorized bicycles? he said no they defeat the purpose of a bicycle and are cheating. (he had an expensive carbon racing bike) I said what this does is make it so you can pedal or have a little help when needed. give it a ride down the street and tell me what you think. he said he want nothing to do with it. I said humor me. how can you say you hate them if you never tried one. so he reluctantly decided to give it a try. he went up the road turned around and had a smile from ear to ear. he said you win this thing is awesome. I told him I like to ride a bike as much as possible, before the motor to ride to work was impossible because I would be soaking wet with sweat by the time I got thier. he said ya that's why I don't take mine to work., I told him I can pedal all the way home and jump in shower after work and get my exercise, (whos kidding who this fat boy always uses the motor lol) anyway made a friend and I am sure he is going to be talking to all his friends about motorized bicycles. for those of you that think I was crazy letting him ride my bike his was a trek that was worth way more then mine and I new he wouldn't leave it. I know a lot of you do not like the spandex crowd however they have the love of bicycles just like we do. talk to them and they really are bunch a bunch of good people, yes their is some idiots but their is also some idiots that ride motorized bicycles also
