The next golf?

Is cycling the next golf? Some venture capitalist seem to think so in this article from the New York Times that features Alto Velo.

"You'll see some of the most influential people in the valley out there on bikes on the weekends," Mr. Komisar said. "There's lots of playful competition, lots of joshing.""Cycling," he added, "is the new golf."

A NYT reporter came out to the start of the "A-ride" last Sunday and interviewed a few people and then headed out to the coast to take some pictures.

(I wasn't on the ride last week; instead I rode around "the loop" with Liam on the trail-a-bike since Cynthia was in L.A. - my chance for fame, missed.)
