Congrats.

Mrs. Intimid8er went with white so she could match it with pink/white gear to look "girlie".

Mmm, I am not a pink-type lady. I have reservations about the color lol There will probably be not a single ounce of pink on the white bike lol

I'd go with white, but as long as you wear the outfit in your ID photo it won't matter...nobody will be looking at the bike.

Wow, I think someone is a little off topic. Getting a new bike is always exciting. Color aside.

okay, enough already, no pink

how about baby blue?

or burnt umber?

or British racing green, that would probably be my choice.

or dark blue with metal flake.

I saw one too and I can't tell you one thing about the bike she was on,or if she was even on a bike.

Congrats on the bike, I would go w/ white too, but yet I have a black one.

White with some Spider Man webs and a big black widow in the middle of the web will be highly noticeable. And will keep any funny guy away.
