Tube Question

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

Thanks Deb, Dogmama, Knotted, Veronica, Triskeliongirl, and Lisa. It's great that I have a place I can ask any question. Sometimes I feel like a total bike dork, but the forum always puts me at ease.

Hey I was a total bike dork only 4 short months ago! But now, thanks to this forum, my knowledgeable and patient DH, and applying myself diligently to the in-depth study of all things bicyclette for months, -I'm only a moderate bike dork!

I agree with you....I think a pale green bike with a honey saddle would be the most divine combination. Maybe one day I'll have to repaint my blue bike for some reason (the color of which I like well enough for now) and then I'll Go for it. I like a creamy pale green myself, sort of 1920's kitchen green...

Oh, but I LOVE the blue. I just didn't want to copy! I think that honey saddle on a Bianchi Celeste would look great also. Think we are reverting back to our childhood? My Sears & Roebuck bike was bright blue with a tan saddle and tan grips, and since I'm going to be 52 in a few weeks...maybe we have the same retro issues!

Hey, you're going to LOVE being 52 on a bike! There is nothing finer!

The only other bike I ever had was when i was 12- my metallic blue Schwinn girl bike. I don't remember the saddle color, but it was some cheap vinyl thing.
Now I get to be a kid on my bike again, but this time with an AWESOME bike- and I can ride it anywhere I want whenever I want with nobody telling me what to do! Woo-HOOO!!!
Yes I do think a Celeste would look beautiful with honey leather "accoutrement".

Oops, sorry, I know this thread is supposed to be about inner tubes....
Well, when I was 12, riding my old blue Schwinn, I didn't even know I HAD inner tubes! I guess I thought the tires themselves just pumped up like balloons. I remember going to the gas station to pump them once in a blue moon when they looked flat.
