I'd say there's a lot of common ground between hybrids and the contemporary generic fixie anyway. They're both semi-upright bikes with slick tyres, predominantly used for commuting.
All this tribalism seems like a way of creating an outlet for pent up road rage. I think rather than racing around Richmond Park, we should all get together down there for a massive orgy.
