I know what you mean about having to pick and choose about how one spends money. Being semi-retired I have the luxury of free time to spend on cycling advocacy.

Larry,

Thank you for understanding. Sadly way too many people don't understand what it's like to be on a fixed income. And think that if they can afford everything that they want that everyone should be able to afford whatever they want as well.

It must be nice for those folks, to be able to buy whatever they want. I've never been able to do that. Sure, I get some things, but not everything. So, I hear ya!

Hi and welcome! Not everything is written in law, so we have to rely on etiquette.

MG,

I agree with ya, it must be nice to be them. And not have to save up to buy something. Or have to try and figure out what they can do without to get something else.
