Embarrassing

[PashleyPrincess]

Pushing off from the traffic lights on my way to work on Thursday. I left my shoe behind

Stony-faced Mercedes driver behind me failed to see the funny side. He had to wait for another light change whilst I retrieved said shoe

Anyone else red-faced this week?

Shame, never mind eh - fat git in car could have had a little laugh.

Get clipless for that tank !!! The shoes stay on pedals, and your feet.. or as the fellas would say - get proper shoes - they don't fall off - you ladies........

Yes PP - that's a lovely story...and the fat git in the car is probably stressing himself out in another way as you write.
We like people who drop their shoes - as long as they don't drop their...

...aitches

Clipless on a Pashley Princess would be wrong. Just... wrong.

It's a timelss, beautiful bike intended to be ridden by beautiful women, preferably with flowing hair, and probably in Laura Ashley print dresses and strappy sandals. If they choose to drop their shoes m at traffic lights, well that gives us all the more time to admire them. (The women, not the shoes, but hey, whatever floats your boat). (It might catch on as a new flirting technique. Like medieval damsels dropping gloves for gallant knights to pick up).

I don't think Laura Ashley do an SPD strappy sandal, do they?

That is a very good way of putting it

[Amanda P]

This was the sort of thing I had in mind...

 

[tdr1nka]

That's the kind of thing I always have in mind!

...or more realistically, this:

Don't worry - that's Amsterdam.

Was it midnight? Was it a crystal shoe? Did your bike turn into a pumpkin? Will there be a Prince Charming coming along?

No Prince Charming on this occasion sadly. Although the Pashley does tend to bring out chivalry in fellas though - yesterday a lovely guy lifted it off the train for me.

Well done Pashley Princess, good to see someone is trying to raise UK standards to somewhere near that of our EU neighbours.
