When curious novices are told 60 is fine, 80 is fast, 90 is extreme, spinning is not going to happen. Any curious enough to do something so crazy as to actually try something different, to do an experiment, they won't get anywhere because all the signposts have been moved. And history is bunk. Only what sprang from my forehead in the past ten seconds has meaning.

Snowflakes who want to get all offended and angry over internet banter should maybe go ride their bike instead.
