Why do you care? Did you mean scorn or envy? :-)

Ummm... that would kinda be giving away a bit much about myself. I'm in
cognito in usenetland if I can help it! )

I did mean scorn. I guess it means I like bikes more than dickhead
yuppies...

Too true. That goes the same for where I live. I am going to buy a nice
bike soon to replace my aging beloved. It has done about 50000ks (I know
people get a lot more out of them). I have all original parts etc except a
rear deraiulleur due to a little accident. I have always kept it
maintained but I am keen for something faster and lighter. Its due for a
chain and cluster anyway. Now I would like to spend up to $3000 so who am I
going to choose to take my business to. I think they should be a little
more over sensitive if they want to make money. People will congregate to
the most helpful stores.
