• Because jumping on a bandwagon that is being pulled by a dead horse hasn't even begun to become tedious...

    - I don't like Colnagos.
    - Neither do I.
    - Fancy a wank?

  • I don't dislike them, I just don't understand why some people seem to have a simultaneous trouser eruption every time someone sticks a picture of one up.

    Something about the brand gives it some kind of mystique or romance or whatever you want to call it, and this adds value. The world would be a very different place if we were rational with every purchase.

    TLDR: They are fucking cool.

    I'm going to look really silly if I'm caught up in some kind of in-joke here.
