I agree with you James. Besides, I try not to look in the rear view mirror too much. I’m not going that way

Each generation tends to consider those that follow as less. Less diligent, less polite, less moral, etc. I try hard not to be the "get off my lawn" old timer.

I hear you on that, Tim. Though, I'll "get off my lawn" on people lacking basic manners ... and when it comes to mountain biking, some learning of trail etiquette seems to be needed. Signed, middle-aged, old-timin' mountain biker!

A bike can't move without a human pedalling.

So you could argue it needs a soul ...to exist as what it was designed to do:)
