Oh heck...

I'm riding a bike that's wildly more expensive than most people could imagine spending for a piece of sports equipment...

I bought it intending never to race it (not really a race bike anyway)...

I'm not a serious athlete, I hardly ever ride three days in the same week, and I'm not normally "training" for anything... Most people would say my bike is wasted on me.

I'm signed up to do a charity ride and I've been hitting people up for money (albeit halfheartedly) even though I could just as easily write my own check, and already have, for most of it...

Why can't everyone just ride the bike they want and can afford? Does J.Lo have to buy bikes for every one of us?
