having an anti-red bias I see so many red bikes but so few blue. Sure there are other colours - quite a lot of white or black but so few blue. Why?

    Because red bikes are faster. Obviously.

    Wombler is quite correct, it's been scientifically proven red bikes are in deed a lot faster :wink:

    More blue how depressing :cry:

    Don't beat yourself up over having a blue bike. Turn a negative into a positive.
    By riding a blue bike you will have to put in more effort to equal that of a red bike rider, hence you will become fitter, therefore when you get a red bike you will be a lot faster :D

    Just see a blue bike as a training aid and not the real thing :wink:

    Think red
    get ahead

    Weren't they either blue or red?

    Can't remember any other colours.
