Take every dumb ebike thread you've ever read on BF and then multiply it by a clueless rightenousness factor of 12 and you have facebook debates.

I hate the internet most days.
Two group rides - one where they're welcome, one where they're not. Done.

The facebook general cycling page for the Twin Cities is actually pretty decent. There's certainly some cluelessness and righteousness, but it doesn't usually drown out the sanity. Also, there are a handful of really knowledgeable people that participate: some LBS employees, some LBS owners, wheel builders, and even some custom frame builders.

I, too, hate the internet most days.
