Essentially, he's suggesting that the biking industry may be making the same mistake that the American auto industry has made -- putting all the money and effort into the niche markets of racing bikes and mountain bikes, which may end up hurting them as Lance disappears from the sports pages and fewer people are drawn into bikes from that avenue.

Check it out, and what do y'all think?
