Not much evidence of intelligent design there.

I guess we're going to get drive-by-wire in bicycles, since few of those have any mechanical connection between the handle bars and the front wheel.

I'm not into bicycles much, but I always figured recumbants would be the bikes of the future. Much easier to use the power of your legs while seated pushing forward than down.

Are you suggesting that it's time for me to upgrade?

Bikes without donks can't be trusted.

Even though I know what 'donk' means in this context, that's still a pretty funny statement.

Donk = australian slang for engine (derived from Donkey Engine)
P.S. English Here (just watched too much TV)
