Dear Bike Companies:

[mimitabby]

This is all about self-expression for some of us. Just like some people would not be caught dead wearing, say, a red dress, or even a dress period
some people don't feel right about being on a blue bike, an orange bike, a black bike, etc, etc, etc.

To me, if I'm going to pay more than $1000.00 for a bike, it's got to say BUY ME LOVE ME RIDE ME GAZE LOVINGLY AT ME. And for me, if that was a black bike with silver/grey trim, it would say to me, turn away, how boring.


I think Pooks is coming from this same direction. (and Pooks, that's part of why I went custom!)

Yeah, it's like if you buy a dress that fits you REALLY WELL and is really comfy, etc....but in a color you just dislike- well heck you are not going to be wearing that dress too often- you just won't feel good in it. A bike is like that for me, but way more so because it's so much more expensive! Colors are very important to me- they affect my mood every day.

Meg hasn't been back cause she's been at my house practicing on her new clipless pedals.
