You sound like my mom--she says the same thing.
Anyway, your bike is now enclosed and you add two more wheels and two more seats for stability. It is perfect for those cold weather commutes and can fit the whole family!

I wish we could stay on daylight savings.
Ebykowsky lounges in his lawn chair, sipping a Mai Tai, munching on barbecue, wearing his Parka. It's the middle of December. "Gotta love this permanent daylight savings time. It's the middle of Winter and it's just like Summer! Well, sorta anyway."
Two men in black suits show up in Ebykowsky's back yard. "Sir you're under arrest."
"Why? Who are you?"
"We're men in black suits. You know, from the Government. Specifically the Bureau of Common Sense. You're under arrest for a violation of common sense by effecting a state of permanent daylight savings time."
"But, your own energy commission says that permanent daylight savings time results in a significant energy savings due to an extra hour of daylight at the end of the day, during the Winter months. Plus a general increase of a feeling of well being and decreased suicide attempts."
"Sir, did you hear us say we were from the energy commission? No, we are not from the energy commission. We are from the Department of Common Sense. We define common sense. Not the energy department, not the department of health and human services, not congress, not the President, not anybody else. Got it?"
"Uhh... not rea..."
"Bound and gag this perp! Sounds like he's do for some political retraining! I don't like the way YOU are thinking! NEVER question us!"
Months later......
saracelica: "Hey Eby... I know you're a fairly new pilot and all but, why are you taking the wheel pants off your Archer? You will lose a few knots of speed."
ebykowsky: "I, uh, dunno. I was just recently trained that one should be transparent, expose everything, hide nothing. So the government can freely see my wheels, so the drones can verify I've maintained tire pressure and proper brake shoes. I mean, that's common sense, right?"
Men in black, standing by, observing: "Ma'am, I'd urge you to think carefully about your answer, should you choose to respond..."
I wish truth wasn't stranger than fiction.
