Weeks 78 & 79 and another confession

Week 78
Monday - Friday: Bicycle

Week 79
Monday - Thursday: Car (No carpool)
Friday: Bicycle

Confession:

I haven't always viewed riders of recumbent cycles as true bicyclists. Am I guilty of bicycle bigotry?

Generally, here's what image pops into my mind whenever I see one coming toward me on the trail:



You'll have to forgive me, I grew up in a small town and never even saw a recumbent cyclist growing up, let alone talked to one. None of my friends ride recumbents, and I don't work with anyone who rides a recumbent either. Not an excuse for my judgments, just an explanation of them.
