    wow, what aZZholes!

    I ride a gaudy bike and I know a lot of men who do too. Please know that
    most of us bicyclists are not like that!

    enjoy your new bike and your new passion. I hope you meet many more bicyclists who enjoy biking enough not to make asinine and nasty comments about other riders...

    All I can say is--it's obvious they weren't TE ladies.

    Not proper TE ladies, at any rate .

    So never mind them, just get out there and enjoy your PINK bike.

    don't worry about people like that - they are most likely insecure and try to bolster themselves by putting down others.
    Just take that pink bike out and show them what you're made of. At 5' tall and a little over 100 lbs, I do not cut an imposing figure by any stretch of the imagination and I often hear comments about my "cute little bike", but most people find rather quickly that it does not pay to underestimate me - I won 3 state championship medals this year

    don't pay any attention to these people! Up with Pink Bikes (I don't have one)

    There are some really snobby cyclist out there. But I think there are soooooo many more friendly cyclists!

    Where's a picture of TrekJeni's purple bike with the purple streamers on the handlebars? She can stream past most of the riders out there on that baby.

    I get the snobby thing from road cyclists quite a bit, because......I'm thin, I'm a triathlete, I was riding with someone who was killed..... Then I get the snobby thing from the tri folks because I don't ride a tri bike. Oh well!

    here's another pink bike thread

    I could only find a picture of Jeni's bike from her wreck pics:

    I will repeat what everyone else said, IGNORE THAT SNOBBY LADIES if you want to call them ladies. geeeez I am sure next year you will be riding right past and leaving them in the dust if they are still riding by then.

    Good luck with the clippless pedals. If you fall, do not worry, it happens to all of us

    Chins up bicyclulz, you rode a great ride!!!!
