Need help accessorizing my new bike please

[Jiffer]

Jiffer- Isn't your husband a racer type? I don't think anyone will say anything to a guy with pink bar tape who drops them like they are standing still. In fact there are some local racers who use pink accessories just for the amusement of whopping people's butts on their pinked out bike. That is comfort in your masculinity for sure!

Jiffer's bike is an excellent example of pinking it out in a subtle way. Of course I am partial to the Pink Giro Atmos helmet with your new Madone.

Thank you for your adoration of my bike. Speaking of people staring at bikes (from someone else's reply), I couldn't help but notice a girl in my bike club staring at my bike a couple of different times yesterday. She never commented on the pink, but I'm thinkin' she was jealous. Hahaha!!!

Anyways, yes my husband is a racer type, but I guess he is NOT secure enough in his masculinity to be seen on an amazingly awesome pinked out bike. Reminds me, though, of the "girl" decked out in pink that we saw flying down a hill on a snowboard doing tricks. I commented on how good she was and later realized, of course, it was no girl!

I left my new 5.1 as is for now except for the pink bottle cages.



I do love the pink tape and maybe a white saddle but figure I can always dress her up later. I thought I got a pretty good deal until you said what you paid. I even got $100 off b/c BF works at the shop about once a month. Oh well. I do love love love her!

She's pretty, arielmoon.

We are completely drifting but neither is my speedy husband. He will carry a pink polar bottle if it is clean but I don't think he would ride your bike either.

My husband can't stand my pink and red "Ride Like A Girl" bottles! He tried to pawn one off to a guy friend who came by on his bike and didn't have a bottle with him. Didn't work, though. I actually don't even use them myself anymore. We use the Polars, too. I have one pink one, but need another!

I DO think, however, he would actually use one of my girlie bottles as a "throw away bottle" at a running race. I might even let him, since I really don't use them myself. He buys cheap bottles to run with that he can toss when he's done with them. He's never use one on his bike, though! Pretty sure he wouldn't use the pink polar, either, but maybe if he were REALLY desperate!
