Project One Creativity

[Karenanywild]

I'm really leaning towards the new Trek Silque SSL as my next bike. The biggest problem; the local dealers don't have one in stock. But, if ordering one why not jump into a Project One bike and pick some cool colors? What's your favorite combo? http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/proje...odel/silquessl

... so many choices!

I own a project one Madone in Deep metallic Red with orange and white flames on the front and rear forks and black accents along with flames on the frame. It's my baby. If your gonna go, go wild I always say.

I wish SO MUCH that I had the money for one of these. Maybe when I have a "real job". Pretty sure the fiance would kill me. I would totally get a lime green bike with pink flames and metallic letters. I like the "if you're gonna go, go wild" approach.

what I didn't say is that it took me 4 years of saving small change, scrapping together grocery coupons and various small jobs, house sit, water the plants, pet sit in the neighborhood to get nearly all of it and then my kids and dear SAG guy chipped in the last 500 dollars to make it possible. Didn't quite make my 65th birthday but made it my 65 th year.

Oh, definitely. It's a thing worth saving for. I know most people "save" for cars or houses. While we will eventually save for a house, neither of us is looking to upgrade the car at this time (we both have very nice, new vehicles that will both be paid off in a few months!), so bike are where our "fun" cash goes. I can dream, at least. Dan thinks the first gift I will get after getting a real job is another bike. That will be my one "big" purchase. And he's probably right. In the meantime, all we can do is save I think that makes it even sweeter.

I’m simple when it comes to bike colors (titanium) but there are some nice color combinations there. Enjoy bright and wild AND a new bike Karen!!!!!

$1049.99 for the U5 Vapor Coat which essentially is just about no paint and no decals, “will give you the lightess possible frame ever” kinda makes me wonder how sane that is though…….

I bought my Seven after grad school and getting the job I have now as my reward for all those years of college…..and haven’t regretted it for a second.
