Does your bike talk to you?

[Tri Girl]

These are too funny! You all are making me laugh.

Glad I'm not the only one who hears "bike voices." DH looked at me like I was from Mars when I told him Oscar talks to me. hee hee... men just don't have the same bond with their machines I guess....

When you get that Bianchi you might just have to become tri-lingual, as I believe they are all assembled in Tiwan now with Italian made parts. My beautiful 2005 celeste Bianche Veloce, Serena, still whispers sweet nothings to me in a mighty interesting accent!

[KnottedYet]

Hmmmmm.... will my Waterford have a cheesehead accent?

(wisconsin is cheesehead, isn't it? or is that Minnesota?)

[Kitsune06]

That's Wisconsin, Knot... and honestly, if you were from Illinois, those'd be fightin' words.

She will, btw, so when she asks you to refill her water bottle at the 'bubbler', she means the 'water fountain'...
she'll say 'wisCONsin' instead of 'wiSCONsin'
will have a giggle fit at you if you EVER think 60* is anything less than t-shirt weather
and won't take 'no' for an answer.

Huzzah for bullheaded Wisconsin girls!

or from minnesota they would be fightin words.

your bike will hate illinois and minnesota for no reason except for the reason of its just the way things are. oh and she will want to drink beer at anytime durning the day.

oh and she will want to drink beer at anytime durning the day.

That's cool. So do I. Maybe I could get her one of those head badges bike jewelry things with the beer glass. (Lemme see if I can find the link)

But the new website she's doing doesn't have the beer glass one up yet. Some nice people jewelry, too.

...Knotted... I can't say anything to that face, but sweet nothings... gotta close that window quick or I start feel all guilty and like I need to give Miz Cakes hugs when I get home. ...do bikes 'smell' other bikes on you? Do they give you the silent treatment when they 'just know' you've been eyeing another's seat 'n headset?
Oh my.



CWR, the 'reason' is that the Vikings are the most evil things on the planet (next to Da Bears and the Lions) and (fibs) from Illinois creep over our southern border to drink our beer and shoot our deer. Didn't they teach you that in little cheesehead school?

Beer is actually frighteningly good early in the morning; my ex used to put it on cornflakes.

Beer:
It's not just for breakfast anymore.

[KnottedYet]

Who could resist this beautiful face?

Oooh, "won't take no for an answer"....

I might not be able to wait until December. I might have to get her shipped out NOW!

*smacks forehead* Oh, brother, the languages keep piling up! When she was whispering to me at the bike shop, I coulda sworn she had a French accent.

Hey Knot, I've got a Waterford too--and she never says "yes"--just "yah" and "you betcha"! As in "Hey, Bad JuJu, wanna go do 40 miles this morning?" "You betcha!" Guess that's the midwesterner in her.

Now I gotta figure out what the Bianchi's name is....hmmmm......
