| C'mon, guys, I didn't say anything about anyone's bikes being good-looking or bad-looking ..... I threw a pic of mine up there for fun. I already knew I was going to get laughed at, but that was the point ... to have some fun and give you guys a laugh. There's a bunch of really nice bikes on here, and it shows you're really serious about your rides - just because I'm not as serious about my ratbike doesn't mean I'm not having fun with it, and isn't that what this sport is all about? Not just the competition, but having fun doing what you're doing? I could have shown pictures of my stock black HF Cag, but how many stock Cags do you see every day? Probably a lot. Mine may not be the prettiest (and actually, I HAVE seen several in a lot worse condition, believe it or not), but it does what I want it to, and despite being ugly, it actually performs pretty decent. It's not a race bike - that's what my other bike is for. It's not MEANT to be a "serious" bike like all of these are. It's meant to be a FUN bike ...... and for me, that's what it is.
Oh, and Glen, just for the record, that "turd" does 35mph (on GPS), and I'm 5'9, 200. |
