Ugly bikes
I was sitting at the lights today and a V Strom pulled up beside me. Fuck those things are ugly, and even though I'm sure they are awesome bikes to ride, I just couldn't bring myself to own an ugly bike. To me a big part of owning my bike is sitting in my shed looking at it and thinking "fuck that's a nice looking machine" and having people come up to me in car parks and say the same kind of thing.
There are some incredibly gorgeous bikes out there, some bikes that just look cool, some that look mean and some that are design classics; but there are some bikes that are just plain ugly.
Don't blame me, I voted Green.
