Color totally matters to me!

I test rode a 2005 Specialized Dolce and I was so bummed that the only bike they had in my size was a girly purple! Luckily, it wasn't the bike I wanted (it was the base model), so I just HAD to order a new one anyway. I'm not a girly, girl...at all. But I am a fan of girly colors in SMALL doses. I love, love, love my 2006 Dolce Comp because its pearl and black with tiny pink accents. Not too girly...but definitely still pretty. Kind of like me!

Luckily, all my gear (helmet, shoes, gloves, etc) are in black or silver to coordinate with my old bike (which was black with red and blue accents) so they all will still 'go' with the new bike. I might just have to splurge on a pink and black messenger bag though!
