It is really easy to "go cold" when you are only into something for the image aspect. You must have been one hellofa road rider with such dedication to the sport. Maybe you don't know anyone that cares about bikes and riding them because you don't care that much yourself?
Maybe you'll "go cold" on being a vegan sometime too, when the image reasons wear off of that little dabbling.
You ordered a bike...and PAID for it without knowing the color? Can we merge this thread with the Jacka*s thread? Just a guess, but maybe "slate" refers to, um, slate, like the stuff people use to make walkways? It's usually grey in color...
WTF Anyhow? Maybe I said it wrong? as in "the image" I ment I was really into being on a geared bike,
use to love the clothes and all, and my taste just changed after around 20 years of road bikes. I have "cared" still love bikes even having been put in the hospital twice being hit by cars; almost killed the second time and still ride, with titanium holding my bones together now. and I still ride so F... U! Sure I know what slate looks like, I was able to view every color BD had to offer except for slate...Just wondered what there verson of it is.
