I hear you on the importance of inclusivity in virtual cycling events. Segregating groups based on skill level, bike type, or interests is a step in the right direction. But let's not forget that real-world interactions still matter. Social platforms can sometimes feel impersonal, and fostering a sense of community can be challenging.

As for eco-friendly materials and smart tech, involving riders in the decision-making process is key. It's not just about meeting their needs; it's also about making sure they understand the benefits and potential drawbacks of these advancements.

Let's not forget that sometimes, simple solutions can be the most effective. Not every cyclist needs a high-tech gadget or an eco-friendly material to enjoy their ride. At the end of the day, the love of cycling should be at the heart of all our discussions.
