No you are probably one of those that has identified himself with a movement to be different, but by doing so has actually conformed to a set of standards to seek out mates - but that eventually evolves into delusion as the group expands and goes mass - then he identifies himself as part of the original hardcore, old skool crew amongst which he bitches that nubies just don't get it anymore. What bollocks. The 'look' is a criteria, get over it, so is price, feel on the saddle, technical specs, and customer service.

I read Zen & the blah blah blah, it's about a leaking tap and it's only purpose is to make people sound like a twat if they ever ask anyone else if they have read it. Rather than trying a Charge for size ask a mate (preferably a fat awkward one) to give you a piggy back to work and back for a week, that'll give you as good a feel for it as anything.
