Where as mine said, "Of course you can go and look at bikes instead of spending the evening with me," but with that faux-innocent look that stank of revenge in the making.
Why would you through a night as cool as this on Valentine's. I know V-Day is a big pile of rubbish, but so's Christmas. And I have to do that one too... :(

Sounds perfect for me and my girl. We're both into bikes and fashion, so that's ideal for us. We're also not into fake events such as Valentines day, if you can't say it the other 364 days of the year you probably shouldn't be together (yes, I am a meanie, and yes my girl and I do honestly bring romance into our lives all year round, 1 day need not be special when they all are).

Agreed, VB.
But some friends of ours are throwing a big burlesque-y affair, so we're going down to that. Romance, free booze, half-naked ladies, and a dose of dark cabaret sounds like fun.
And whilst mine does ride a gorgeous old Triumph 3-speed, getting to even think about oiling her chain once in a while is hard enough. But maybe I can pop my head in on the proceedings before we get all dolled up and debauched, I suppose… -

my girl also purports not to care about Valentines Day, yet I know full well that that does not mean I don't have to at least go through the motions...

Wheels & Heels: The New Season’s Accessories
Columbia Road boutiques to open for one exciting night of high fashion as the East London Flower Market transforms into a catwalk for cycle style as part of London Fashion Week.
On Thursday, 14 February at 6pm, local independent talent and established designers will shine a new light on cycle fashion, with the designs on the catwalk just as at home on the high street as on a bike. Brands on show will include established talent such as Dashing Tweeds and Saville Row's, Jan Cicmanec, alongside up and coming designers such as Smeear and Archies Gro Bags.
The show, which will feature tricks and bicycle ballet by the likes of Paddy Waters alongside glamorous models on beautiful bikes, choreographed by Robyn Simpson, promises to wow the expected crowd of around 2,000 people including London’s fashion pack.
Emily Fleuriot, Editor of Fashion Monitor says in response to the event:
'There's definitely a common misperception that you can't be stylish and cycle. You can - but it's a challenge. As one of fashion's bicycle enthusiasts I welcome all pioneers of functional, style-conscious clothes, which mean I can cycle AND look the part, whether at a hot showbiz party or a business meeting.'
The event is the brain child of Hackney Council and Tower Hamlets Council who aim to achieve a greater uptake of cycling by women by demonstrating how cycling can influence a girl’s wardrobe in a positively un-lycra but completely runway fashion.
For further information about the designers and the event, please contact Amy Fleuriot, Cyclodelic, on 078 8293 9905 or info@cyclodelic.co.uk or Louisa Clarke, Hackney Council, on 020 8356 8189 or louisa.clarke@hackney.gov.uk.null
