You don't need a 4K bike to use a Kickr w/ Zwift. You're on the other end of the riding spectrum.

This is where my chief complaint with Musk comes in. His whole bravado as a salesman is probably having a longer term impact on AI for cars. He keeps pushing this auto pilot when it's not.

To add onto this, I believe a large amount of consumers of these products assumed they were only accessing their own data. This story is highlighting how these companies further connect dots between you _and_ all your connections. This is w
