They like totally never breed out of their natural habitat, which I guess is Taiwan / China. They must feel very comfortable in their new ecosystem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29631046.post-75066144774426202702009-04-21T12:26:00.000-04:002009-04-21T12:26:00.000-04:00I wish I knew you when I was a kid.

I was in the bike shop and wanted the pink flat pedals. The guy at the counter was like "are you sure?" Well being 10 years old and in the 80's I thought I was going to be the super cool kid with the pink pedals. It turns out that everyone made fun of me and my pink pedals. Scared for life I have stayed away from pink. If only we were friends back then. You could have stood up for me with your pink helmet on and the world would be different.<br /> <br />Great job on the blogs.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07232915730479619011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29631046.post-89929725657386462942009-04-21T12:10:00.000-04:002009-04-21T12:10:00.000-04:00Thanks Solo.

Back in the day I would not put my stinky/sweaty helmet back on. Nowadays I don't coast to the car on my bike without a helmet on, so it's nice having a fresh lid to wear.Big Bikeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18303656141935863563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29631046.post-10799769537684513482009-04-21T10:04:00.000-04:002009-04-21T10:04:00.000-04:00Buying new helmets two at a time is a good idea an...Buying new helmets two at a time is a good idea anyway. Sometimes in the summer you come home all sweaty and tired and maybe your poor helmet gets, as they say, ridden hard and put away wet. Owning two means not having to ride in a gammy helmet the next day. Not to mention that in the event that you split one in half in the middle of a stage race or something, you won't have to run out and take what you can find at retail in order to race the next day. Economically it should make no difference as you'll only wear it half as much so it should last twice as long; therefore your pinkness will remain vibrant and, errr, vibrant for longer, without UV fading damage.solobreakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10746976531739827476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29631046.post-76839405411827898862009-04-21T09:33:00.000-04:002009-04-21T09:33:00.000-04:00smooch smooch smooch! you know i love a good love ...smooch smooch smooch! you know i love a good love story! thanks for writing a great love story!Miriam Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04616480576233087418noreply@blogger.com
