It's easier and takes the blame off of us to blame the younger generations for lack of interest in the older ways....
I remember the old poster in the 1960s that quoted all kinds of things about the decline of society and the wild ways of the young, problem is the author was Plato or one of them other "olden days" dead guys but at first you think it was some "modern" politician.....
The questions I think of when reading the above top 10 list is :
Who gave them their first smart phone, xbox etc.?
Who allowed them to spend so much time on their electronics that they "unplugged" from real life?
To avoid being so self absorbed did their parents get them to volunteer to help the poor or homeless or someone sick or injured?
Did those same parents pass on the love of nature and provide positive life experiences on a bike or was it considered a "murder cycle" and too dangerous to ride? Did those parents get the kids involved at a young age maintaining and detailing the bike so it was a way for the parent to build a bond with the kids?
I do agree that younger people expect all the latest bells and whistles on any bike/car/truck etc. and that sound systems,navigation and phone linking seem almost more import than in the olden days when all that wasn't available and we wanted power, handling and performance in a vehicle and to be a part of the "driving experience" not isolated and giving control up to cruise controls,parking assists, lane departure devices, auto braking and I guess soon on the horizon true auto piloting systems...
