What does your bike tell us about you?

[Dave7]

Mine is white with black doggy paws all over.
It has big eye-lashes stuck on the front.
It has a fish sign glued on the back.
I have 2 big fluffy dice hanging off the handle bars and a nodding dog attached to the saddle.
For some reason I do get some funny looks when out on it.
Oh.......and I clean it on the drive every Sunday

It seems a crime not to post a picture of that! From your sig it looks as if you have a camera...

Go on, I'll chuck mine in the ring. Big supermarket-type retailer but very understated branding. Stealth bomber styling but, if you look closely, it has a bell on the handlebars.

Make of that what you will

You drink a lot. That's a big pair of bidons water bottles.

OK, Here's my pride and joy.... No badges, no declas, no logos. Lot's of silver & Ti bling. I like flash, I like understated. This bike does both.

Edit: Dustcaps are now Blue.... of course..

I can see a speck of dust on it.

Sorry Ian, I had to remove my 'like' because of the dust caps being blue.

Hummmpphhh....

Apologies, I didn't mean the blueness itself as a choice. I had failed to notice that the ones in the photo are yellow - I'm really sorry but that bike should have black ones.

To be honest... it's shouldn't have any..
It's all Sandra's fault.. she gave me the Blue ones....

I DID notice the yellow dustcaps, but only because I was looking for something on the bike that was NOT understated.

My 4 bikes all have things wrong with them, are a bit scratched/dented, and are not immaculately clean. I suppose that could tell you that I am a bit lazy, have been too poor to buy new parts for them, do actually ride them, and am not over-fussy about cleaning ...

1: I do actually ride it and probably more miles then most
2: I'm not over fussy about cleaning either

Hmm, my post might have come across the wrong way ...

I know some people with clean, immaculate bikes who only keep them like that by hardly riding them!
