You're kidding, right? I actually might buy a C'dale for the right
price in the right circumstance, but it's far from the top of my
list. To suggest I wish I rode one is idiotic, if I wanted one I would
have bought one. Tell me, what does a C'dale offer over my Ventana
that results in my "wishing I rode a Cannondale"? Even if you do
make a conscious effort to buy American when possible, there are many
quality bikes made here in the USA as well as overseas.
Regarding brand loyalty, it's best to evaluate each item and not
blindly follow a name. That said, I'm not aware of lousy Ventana or
Seven. However, I have certainly ridden a couple POS C'dales.
I find myself wishing I rode more. I find myself wishing I could ride
better. I've wished I could ride faster, drier, and with less flat
tires. I have never, ever wished I was riding a C'dale.
