should i tell HER

dave02

Hi
I love my new specialized roubaix sport, i love her curves and the way she does just what i want when i want it, BUT ,and this is the "thing" when i look at her i secretly wish she was white and not charcoal, What should i do, I new she was charcoal when we first met, i thought i might be able to make her change but no. I dont know what to do.

Did you tell her that you're racist?

smoggysteve

If you have ever tried to keep a white bike looking WHITE you would be happy you got charcoal in the first place.

dave02

I think i will tell and hope she will forgive me, thanks for listening its helped.

GiantMike

Secretly SHE's hoping you'll let her go so she can be ridden by somebody that can do her justice. Sell HER to somebdy better.

White bikes are easy to keep looking clean.. much like white cars look cleaner than black cars.. I even had a comment the other day about how my 18 month/6000 mile old bike looked new

unixnerd

We should swap, I have a white Roubaix and I'd prefer charcoal.

Perhaps SHE doesn't think you're much of a looker either and secretly wants to leave you anyway

shes done kissing the frog (you), let her find her prince charming.

dave02

I told her, she didnt say much, but then she is the dark silent mysterious type, i will just have to wait and see what happens when we go on our next ride,

Nah - its only a Roubaix Sport. You can't polish a turd and all that .......................

Or you could just get one of these:

dave02

you cant paint over the cracks in a relationship, you have to be honest with each other, she said she forgives me and i believe HER, we need to move on and enjoy the rest of our time together.

Why? Has one of you got a terminal illness :P

dave02

i am in the twilight of my years she is in the first flush of youth, i count myself lucky just to have her for as long as i can

This quality of bollox dave02, is worthy of the best bollox and at the level of bollox that will let you fit in no problem. If only all newbies had a sense of humour.

BTW - Do you want to be the new queen of BB? Our unelected 'queenie is banged up having swindled old dears out of millions by selling fake anti wrinkle cream in Redhill, Surrey. His name is seanthecon, if you see him, phone the rozzers because he has escaped and he is not allowed out until he makes a return on our investment.

Yes, I think we need more dave02's

Now 02, while I appreciate pinarello's efforts to hook me up with a new queen, I am still loyal to 'thecon' despite his recent indiscretion's, I think if this is going to work out you need to continue with the high quality bollox you have demonstrated thus far

dave02

i feel uplifted by you comments, i see a world much improved if there were more bike lovers, i had a vision, about half past 9 last wed, stay true to the cause, i love u all

dave02

and my new BIKE

Yossie

I think THAT Dave02 is SPOUTING bollox of the highest ORDER.

I am IMPRESSED.

You still can't polish a turd though, even with Dulux EMULSION.

and enjoy the rest of our time together

If one of you is to die, please can I have your watch and shoes? Unfortunately mine are already "bagged" but I have some Tupperware and a spare spaghetti holder thing that's available if you want as a trade.

Dave 02/Yossie

If you are polishing a turd I suggest you use . This will being up a far deeper lustre than using Dulux which after all is not a polish but a paint.

Dave 02, Have you considered the effects of using a water based emulsion on your carbon fibre frame?

Yossie

Sorry - no image in the above post which suggests that nothing can POLISH Dave's turd.

dodgerdog

Confound this damn technology!

Turd Polish

i am sure the great god "Pedlonforever" is looking down on all of us, his teachings are that ,if you have faith then all things are possible, not all things are black or white , (see what i did there) some times charcoal is best,
and Brad wiggins is not as sexy as vincenzo nibali or fabian cancellara for a bike riders name,

Bollox to you and your chum seantheoldladyconner from Crappy Croydon. How about this for a compromise:

Dave02 takes up the mantle of Queen of BB on a temporary basis until we figure out the framing of STC for another stint making loads a money for us?

He's like a hybrid spouter. I'm impressed but very scared at the same time.
