I think the point is, we could never afford their gas or most recreation riders like ourselves. So why care. Buy what we can afford and run what does not require a loan to get.
I don’t mind hearing what they have but really obsessing over it is not a point in my life. Their bikes are not off the floor and really if they were, they would be on the highest end of the spectrum which is really insane when you see those prices.
Plus, does not matter if we had their identical ride, we do not have their genetics nor training to come close to their riding.
