Show me RED bikes! (with white details...)

[Grog]

THANK YOU everyone for your contributions! This is most inspiring. I really appreciate the Seven gallery in particular.

Catrin, I've read all about your Gunnar-getting adventures as I was searching the forum - what an exciting time! It sounds like your story will have a very happy ending ("and she rode happily in the sunrise...").

Luna, don't worry about it. I don't dwell on things for too long. It's really too bad because I was looking forward to a beautiful Luna, but I'll survive this one.

Shootingstar, in fact the blue bike is the opposite of a rainy-day bike. I never was able to properly put fenders on it. I'll keep it for training probably, but it will mostly be retired I'm afraid... We'll see.

I've got to turn something in tomorrow 6pm for the design, so I'll fiddle with it tonight after going through those galleries. Thanks everyone, I'll definitely keep you updated with pictures when the Big Day comes.

Grog, good luck on your Gunnar. You can also go to the Waterford site and look at the photo gallery. Or just google "red and white bikes" and click on images. You can also get ideas on designs. That's what I did when I was trying to decide on my bike and it helped me. Be sure to post pics when you get your bike! I can't wait to see it.

Margo, I understand where you are coming from and wish you the best but the selfish side of me wishes you were still building bikes. You did such a beautiful job. The bike industry won't be the same without your bikes.

Here is my contribution to the "red with white accents" gallery

Here's my red Merckx, just the lettering is white:

my big red FELT. The white lettering makes it extra FAST. Its not as flashy as the tri bike I am coveting (Orbea Ordu SLT, if you are wondering), but I love it and its retro steez.

I have a black saddle/bar tape on it right now, but when the $$$ is available, I plan on putting on a white w/black accents saddle (Terry Flx Carbon), and some Serfas tires with white stripes.

The white bar tape will come back in the spring, when I'm riding with gloves again. You'd think that the bike would stay cleaner, longer when its inside on a trainer all winter. It doesn't.

I just posted this pic this past weekend after a stop at the LBS and falling in love with a Specialized Dolce Sport



I'm REALLY digging the red/white. I can't wait for tax paperwork to get here so I can file my return.. then I can shop for real!!
