Gilberto Simoni had a couple of all-pink bikes built up for the closing stages of one of his Giro wins. A bike shop in Little Rock, where I used to live, had one of these pink pair up on the wall (the shop owner was a bit of a collector) - except that it’s way too small, I’d have no problem riding that pink bike - anyone had a problem with that (and certainly in Arkansas, there would be some who would), they could kiss my arse 🙄
