I got a new digital camera for myself a few months ago. I'm not sure why, but all the black and silver ones seemed so boring to me, and plus i wanted my camera to be "different" from my DH's clunky older digital camera. So i got a PINK one!
When DH saw it, he said "Hah, I bet you bought that pink camera so that I would be too embarrassed to borrow it and use it, right?....well your plan WON'T WORK!"
That's a secury man.

I just rode my mtb for the 3-Day, with pink streamers, a pink stuffed hare on my seatpost bag, and every inch of the top tube covered by a fuzzy pink boa. And people thought I was a hero for doing it. Proud to be Pink.
For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

Sorry, don't know what was going on with my fingers. What I was trying to type was "secure", not "secury". Now I'm not feeling very "secury" about my typing.

Seana Hogan's a Fred, and Proud of It! Woo-hoo!!!!
What a great thread!
Check this out for something similar from Seana Hogan, multiple-time Race Across America woman winner who gave the guys a run for their money, too:

I also had a snitty comment from a woman rider once, re. my Speedplay cleats, of all things. She seemed put out the whole ride that I was there; everybody else was nice. This was a group ride I was trying for the first time. At our rest stop, she said loudly, in a snarky voice, in my hearing, "Those cleats she's wearing. Those are the ones that are supposed to be hard to walk in, aren't they?"
I was too shocked to give the obvious answer--"They're a little awkward to walk in, but they're meant for riding and they're great for that"--which would have been delivered with a sweet smile and tone of voice that made it clear that I was the much nicer person of the two of us . Needless to say, never tried a ride with that group again.
Thank heavens most riders, women AND men, are nice, supportive, etc. etc.
Re. FatBottom Girls Ride: maybe we need multiple venues at once!! An International FatBottom Girls Day. Complete with bike bells encourageed on all bikes. I would SO go for that!
And, is that Slug shirt available somewhere??????
Okay, enough time wasted reading about riding. Time to get on the bike.
