What's the point to this statement other then you can copy a web site and post it?
Then the web site is in error. Skinny road bike tires are not exclusive to long distance riding, many people ride long distances on wider tires; and is the web site suggesting that hybrids cannot be ridden far? That's BS too.
Yishunbicycle is linked to a commercial site. I don't know how legit he is, but the "who we are" page does not list a physical address or a phone number. I usually disregard his posts because they're quite pointless.
