Agree except for the assumption that people who do not race are somehow 'casual riders.' In fact, I find more the opposite to be true. Someone who uses their bike to ride to work, shop, access cultural and entertainment outlets, visit friends and relatives, and take vacations is far more serious in my eyes than someone using a bike for the sole purpose of riding faster than someone else.
