I don't know about you, but I can't hear anything when I'm on my bike, especially conversational tones. I'm not sure I'd like a "smart" bike anyway. Kind of seems like it would take the adventure out of riding.

I would tend to agree, the concept of "Situational Awareness" for the road condition warnings , and traffic conditions could be helpful, but conversing with full on dialogue should be kept to a minimum.

After riding for so long, I think I'd find it hard to trust the advice of a machine.

I mean, I'm so used to doing the situational awareness Ross MacRae​ mentioned that I'd feel like it was a nagging back seat driver. Let alone if the machine "took over" for some reason.

So, Minnesota would rather people not be able to advance themselves without the officiating organization paying a fee, first? Do libraries have to pay a fee to lend books? Do documentaries put together by universities have to pay a fee first? If I move into the state and give away old college text books, do I have to pay a fee first? http://www.forbes.com/sites/evapereira/2012/10/19/minnesota-bans-free-online-education/
