"The human body is not designed to move faster then fifteen miles per hour. Our sight, our ability to interpret things, to process things is bicycling speed... Anything higher is against human evolution. And I'm convinced that as people end up spending more of their lives at a human speed, they're going to be happier. That happiness cannot be attained at higher speeds." - Dan Burden
