As Dale suggested I should, I apologize for my uncivil choice of words in my response to Mr. Shackelford's comments. I thought he was raising an unnecessary contraversy in regard to what seemed a very innocuous comment that a bike felt "more Italian than French". I also thought some of his comments were uninformed. But I should have stated that as I have here now, and not adopted the uncivil tone I did.
