Traded Diamond Earrings for a New Bike

[Possegal]

I love that you rode it home from the store. Like being a kid and wearing your new sneakers home from the shoe store.

And I think that bike looks lovely on you! (that's the color of my Trek too!)

I laughed at Trek420's comment about diamond frames!

I agree with all the others; good choice!

Happy riding to the two of you!

Definitely the better choice. Not only does it compliment your features, the more you ride the more it will compliment your figure.

Last year, my boyfriend bought me a present that came in something like a jewelery box. They were earrings for my bike. Well sort of, it was a super light, elegant single piece clamping system that worked for both my brakes and shifters together. I loved it.

Yes, a shiny new blue diamond bike. I like that. I know there is a blue topaz, but blue diamond, I am not so sure of. I'm glad I straightened out my priorities too. I rode it today 4.8 miles. I could go more, but I also walk my dog in the mornings and it was a busy day. I'm going to work my way up, but I think I need to get bike shorts sooner than later.

Bike shorts are even less than diamonds

Definitely a better investment at many levels

Ahh, I already have a helmet. I got it about 5 years ago when I was riding with the kids to their school. I figured if they had to wear a helmet than so should I.

Congratulations on the new bike! To tie this to another thread, are you going to name her? I think the bike will be more fun than the diamonds
