Someone was going to make the joke at some stage, so I thought I'd get it over with from the outset...

It looks especially lovely without the luggage in a way that I reckon the HPV bikes just don't.  I'd love to have a play some time when we're not half dead or gnarly randonneuring...

That is tres shiny. Love the GPS mount. The headset looks similar to my Furai, and I normally ziptie a RAM mount for mine. One loops under the frame, the other around the back of the headset cap.

Gives you a static mount that is angled towards you and easily shaded with your knees if the sun is glaring.

I maintain that it's a work of Stan:

"Wow, you've got even sturdier thighs than I have!"

Having a Headlight that matches the frame is simply posing!

I assume "wiggle wiggle" refers to the process of purchasing 2 items from a well known cycling emporium?

Something far more innocent than that: I was merely experimenting with the Dolphin's steering.

If you stuck a long pointy horn* on the front, would that make it a narwhal?

*And yes, I know a horn isn't the same as a tusk

Hmmmm

Then Charlotte could be waxing her horny dolphin.


Don't worry - it's warm, I don't need a coat.
