I'd like to think that for my riding, weight might matter.  But it would be 
human rather than bike.  I could easily lose 50 pounds and still be 
considered heavy by most folks.  So while I might like a slightly lighter 
bike, it's not going to make me a better rider by any means.  And wouldn't 
want to strip anything off my Sam Hillborne to get it under 30 pounds.  And 
it would take a lot of work to get it down to that level.  
 
As an aside, it's funny Patrick Moore considers the Fargo heavy, as when I 
had one, it was possibly my lightest bike at around 30 pounds.  Just wish 
it wasn't my failure as a rider that caused me to sell the bike.
