Heck, you can even buy skirt/coat guards at the department store over there.... Why not bring one back? Did bicycles stop being no extra charge on international flights? I usually don't have $1000 plus duty that I can just drop when I'm over there, and taking a bike box on the airport bus would be sheer hell. Not worth the hassle. |

Bianchi Celeste has, over the years, been more greyish, more bluish, more greenish and recently with various iridescent tones. Why do road bikes all look like gay pride parade floats and their riders dress like clowns? |

My road bikes come in any color you like (as long as it's black). As to the gay issue, I don't think there's anything gayer than wearing spandex pants or similar - in any color. The real question is, why are you so obsessed with what is gay and what isn't? |
