As do I and a lot of other Walmart bike owners I would bet who ride their bikes on a regular basis. The difference is, I do my own maintenance, and really anyone can do their own by just googling and buying a few simple tools. The late Sheldon Brown's website is a gem for learning how to do almost anything on a bicycle.
I do buy a new bike every year but it's not because mine is falling apart, it's because I like a new ride each year. I donate the old ones to charity.
Always about 100 bicycles in front of the local chicken plant near here..... and all of them are dept store bicycles.
The idea is just to ride... something the Walmart haters in here simply don't get.
