I'd really like one of those. But I DO wish that slug didn't look quite so... um... well.
I wish it could be redesigned with a snail or something.
edit: I'd like a pair of bike shorts with the following message printed over the back:

<---hill slug to the max!
Oh Noes! I need one of those hill slug jerseys!
I was thinking that although there are numerous trails in this area I will probably run into these biker bozos sooner or later....

My bike may be burgundy red, but I wore a ponytail holder with ribbons attached to it in your honor this weekend

Life's short, enjoy it.
Eventually I'll get around to posting about my 5 day Labor Day tour this year, but for now I'll just say that I rode the whole thing (480 miles) with a tiera on my helmet, a monkey on my flag pole and a sign that said "Ask me about my Grandkids". Luckily any would be bike snobs kept their opinions to themselves and let me enjoy the ride. Some times you just have to ignore the rest of the world and do what makes you happy. (Like ride a pink bike!)

Late to the party
Sorry I'm late to this thread... I'm not quick on the draw with the snarky comments, but the breast cancer retort would have been brilliant...
As it is, it was good that you didn't tell them where to go, because I find that when nasty people get called out, they only get nastier and feel justified in being rude in the first place...
Seriously, what the hell is wrong with some people???
