A wise man named, Ashok, once told me, Kurt, there are 3 economic classes in the world. People who rides his bike, drives his car, or flies his private plane. Either there are a lot less people driving cars or more feasibly, a lot more people in developing countries are riding bikes. Take your pick!
From Vidhi Shah on Bennetton Talk. "While every single financial graph we’ve seen lately makes us want to hide under a blanket until 2012, this one is worth a smile. The manufacture of bicycles seems to be a recession proof business, because more people are buying bicycles than ever before. In fact, Giant Manufacturing, the world’s largest bicycle maker just sold a record 460,000 bikes last month.
Tonight, when a gas-guzzler corners me on my ride back home, I will think about this, and smile smugly before I give him the finger."
