When I bought my bike I bought it because of the color.
I like this particular blue color. So, when I was buying a
new set of gloves on-line they had a blue, that sorta matched.
This afternoon one of our grandchildren was over briefly.
She wanted me to sew her dinosaur back together. I said to
her that we needed to pick a color of thread that matched -she said pink.
But then she said, it’s not my favorite color anymore, but it’s not red.
I showed her the green threads that matched her dinosaur, and let her
pick one. She again let me know that red was not her favorite color anymore.
I wonder what turned her off red. For sure this blue, is still my color. In fact on
a ride this weekend, Interurban, I walked right up to the woman who had a gravel
bike in the same color, a little darker, and chatted it up with her. It was a Kona,
quite a beautiful bike. She said she bought the bike so she wouldn’t have as much
maintenance – Tubeless tires. I don’t think she even cared about the color!
