tsk tsk. this type of class warfare doesn't do anyone any good. it inevitably leads to social unrest and that cannot help. calling people out as bourgeois is just a simplistic, petulant response to a complex situation. it's totally unconstructive. let's elevate the debate. imagine harleys and volvos, parked side by side.
frankly, i find both modes of conveyance pretty bourgeois, but that's just me.
on a separate note, i found what i think is a much more favorable route for riding from dc to greenbelt. I'll put up something next week. if people are interested in riding out, drop a line. I'll probably leave my office between 5:00 and 5:15.
