Are your clothes suppose to match your bike?

I have a black bike with silver and white on it. I added pink accessories and I have been going through a great deal of trouble to find perfect pink jerseys.

My bike is blue because that's the color it came in. Stupid yearly frame colors with no options. It's a fun happy bike, but the boring blue makes me sad. It really needs to be pink. One of these seasons I'll invest the time to repair that.

Then again, I'm sometimes lucky when I have matching colors of *anything* on. (The shoes, also, they are red and the gloves are purple. The goggles, they do nothing!)

-- gnat!

I don't match my bike all the time. I like pink and my bike is white and purple, so sometimes I sort of coordinate. But I never match the bike. All of my bike shorts are black, with the exception of one pair of Descentes, that have a pink stripe, so I can only wear pink tops with those. My helmet however, is white and silver, so it matches the bike. I don't have actual cycling shoes yet, so we'll see what I end up with.
