It seems to me Patrick you're questioning no one but your own question. 
You're gonna ride where and how you're gonna ride regardless of what anyone 
says. 

All the deferring to "technology" is but more of the same old worn out 
systems of faith/good vs. evil/dual-ism. That it's presented or masked as 
"modern science" or whatever doesn't change that one iota. Same ol' stuff 
different story. S.O.S.D.S. All the clever means that man comes up to 
"make life better/worse/heaven/hell" assume that there is even LIFE that 
could be altered to begin with, that there ever was a "beginning".  Hah hah 
.. there isn't one . There's countless theories of "how it all began" 
 theories are theories because they are obviously theoretical and not 
reality. Life ITself isn't a "best guess" , it absolutely IS !  

As far as I'm concerned ... "how LIFE truly works" is PFM ... pure effin' 
magic.  not a trickster/foolery kind of magic rather one of 
self-awe and self-wonder and self-appreciation.. .. Love as Love Loves.

Just read this from same:. Grant is too nice to be sarcastic (I mean that
sincerely), but this comes close.

Here's something we're not working on, but it has potential to make life
better in cities and worse in mountains. It's the Musk-Bike. You may have
seen this already.

Eventually it'll have drones built-in, for AI accident avoidance. Not a
joke, all serious, I believe this is the way it's all going. Nothing that
happens with bikes in the future will make normal bicycles any less
relevant or suited to getting around. It's just that, you know, it's wired
into our DNA to want everything for nothing.

*There will be DIY home liposuction machines and While-U-Sleep muscle
stimulators so you can wake up stronger. There will be a way to add or take
melanin out of your skin, for better or worse. Models will go for it for
sure. The new/reissue of Google glasses will have video capabilities, too,
and the technology will make its way into contact lenses, which may help
beating victims record the attacks. Everything is a mix of good and bad,
danger and potential. *

Anything involving Musk makes me simultaneously curse and laugh, tho' I'd
be happy to have the US take control of e-bike mfring .

Patrick Moore, who has no problem being sarcastic.

Its 2-inch tire capacity notwithstanding, or whatever the word is.

I think Grant means don't go jumping logs on his road bike and expect the 
frame to take it. In my mind gravel and dirt roads are "trails", but I've 
been on much gnarlier stuff than that.
