BIKE OF THE MONTH!
BabyBlue’s theme song:
http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/bob-dylan/21322.html
I picked up Baby Blue for $80. She’s got huge headlight powered by a generator in the rear. It may not shift into all gears, but she still rides like butter. I never knew how much difference a road bike could feel, but this bike is significantly faster on the street than my mountain bike despite the weight difference. This afternoon, I stretched her legs over 26 miles along the Chicago lakefront. Best of all, she sports a handy kickstand.

When you move as fast as I do, 4 brake levers is hardly enough. You wouldn't understand.
Left by Adam on February 15, 2006
wouldn't you say that 4 brake levers for one bike is a bit redundant?

Do your really think the Avalanche has a prayer against that Madone. The bike that you should be using in your comparison is baby blue, and if I'm not mistaken, this bitch got nothin but steel. Best tie a rope to her and throw her over the side for use as an Anchor.

Thats Military Grade Plastice and glue. That is of course, if you are willing to accurately recognize the magnificence and aptitude of a beast virile and whole in and of itself. What rolling countryside, we need to determine. Shropshire UK, Amalfi coast, Bordeaux river valley? Maybe we ought to stick around here, I doubt baby blue would be permitted in any other country. Oh yeah, you'd most likely incurred a $50 overage fee when you check her under the plane.

Duel accepted. Prepare my victory flask. I expect the Totties to be scrubbed, washed and of the baby red variety. Are you sure Baby Blue has welds that can withstand the kind of punishment that MadOne is prepared to unleash?

all in all a beautiful bitch

It LOOKs like you wanted a Bianchi, but settled for a schwinn

Also, that bitch looks like she could use a full measure of grease. Careful the hubs don't seize

Best leave that bitch in chicago if you ever come back here to ride. Sweet ride, but the MadOne would mince her into a pile of rusted scrap

You make a good point.

Worth every penny. Who cares about weight when there are no hills?
