Appreciate the thoughtful response, I learned a lot!
So.. not to opt-in now will make pressure to be paid in the future. As the data is oil of the todays. Why to give it to Google for free and let them earn even more on it now.
Yeah I think this will probably be my approach here

yeah you're right, that's exactly the reason I set up the site.
there are lots of people building extraordinary stuff these days, but they're very hard to find. they often can't compete on cost with cheaper producers, so you'll never find this stuff on the front page of Amazon or in the big box display at your local Wal Mart.

This list is a collection of extraordinary products I've found that have lifetime warranties. Agree that buying one great product is often less expensive than replacing a cheap one many times.

makes sense, cycling as a new tourist has a real steep learning curve

I think American cities will continue to see more bike usage, but probably driven more by the fact that it's way less expensive to own a bike rather than being more convenient or useful.
Once a city reaches a critical mass of bikers, infrastructure will probably improve and then it may in fact become more convenient and useful to bike places.
But most drivers in places with no bike infrastructure hate bikers, so I think there will be some major pushback along the way.

Interesting to see how bikes have become not just a popular mode of transportation in European cities, but the primary mode of transportation in some.
Canada and the US seem to be shifting towards bikes too, but are going through the awkward dance of figuring out how to safely include both cars and bikes on the same roads.
In North America, I think this decade will be one of ongoing wars between bikes and cars unless self-driving tech really accelerates. I'm not sure which side will win, but my personal belief is that both bikes and cars are sub-optimal.
Golf carts are the best of both worlds when it comes to urban mobility.
