I like pink and I refuse to feel bad about it.

Online the other day, I came across a comment that went something like, "Those ladies riding their cruisers, all dressed in pink. I don't think they're serious about cycling."

But really, what does this mean? How does someone define "serious about cycling"?

It's a silly concept.

I love your pink and green Apollo.

I like pink as a color, too. I hate that it's gotten such a lousy reputation. Poor pink!

I am not much of a pink fan (I just don't like pastel type tones) but I love your Apollo. The colors really work well together.

I like pink, though based on the number of red sweaters in my closet I seem to like red more. I really like bright pink (more fuchsia than pastel) for cycling jerseys, since it tends to be visible from pretty far away.

I think a green bike with pink accents looks great.

I like bright pink jerseys so people know I'm a girl! Most biking clothes are so unflattering that combined with a helmet and sunglasses, I'm afraid I may look gender-neutral. I just may be a little over self-conscious, of course. And besides, pink looks better on me than screaming yellow.

The new bike is beautiful, and I think pink fenders on a black bike would also look sharp! Good for you for sticking to your choices!

They say that one of the reasons the women's tools are pink is to prevent the guys from stealing them (accidently or on purpose). I wonder if that works for bikes, too?
