    Need help accessorizing my new bike please

    So I test rode the Madone 5.1 today and it felt amazing. BF and I are picking up my new bike tomorrow! (I did not want to stack my new bike on top of my old one, since we took the smaller car). First of all, I got an amazing deal. Two months ago, the bike was around $3,100, not including tax. When I went to look at it over the weekend, it was $2,660. I got it for $2,380, including tax!! It helps to know the right people in the bike shops around here.

    Ok, so I am already thinking of how to accessorize my bike. Do I go with the pink theme, or the white theme? Pink theme = pink saddle, pink handlebar tape, white theme = well, you get my drift...I definitely do not like the Bontrager saddle that comes with the bike. I think white will get dirty quickly. But pink might be too girly? But I love pink...so I don't care. The guys at the shop suggested white saddle, pink handlebar tape. I don't know.

    Since I value your opinions (I always come to this forum for advice - so far, so good), What do you guys think?

    Here is a stock picture of the bike from their website...it might help to envision the colors on it. The one I have comes with the greyish Bontrager saddle and black handlebar tape.
