I just want to know why the need to "defend" your preference?
Why care what the other guy/gal rides? IMO we ought to chose the option we prefer and not badger everyone else to make the same choice. Both options have their pluses and minuses.
If I defend something it's because it is being attacked. If people didn't attack one or the other size then things wouldn't need to be defended. Idiotic statements should be corrected and the fun part about the internet is that it's full of idiots!

problem is, people DO care. they secretly judge. Most people i encounter are fairly nice, but i've seen the judgmental types. They comment negatively on price, pedals, single/multi pivot, wallyworld bikes (which i totally understand somebody using for the local rail trail.) etc.
Too bad there doesnt seen to exist a sport that people wont judge!
