I feel like this has been pretty well covered, but I just wanted to say that, as a rule of thumb, if you are going to make a broad generalization about broads, change the word woman/girl/lady for black and see if you think you could get away with saying it without sounding racist.
If someone had said to you "I don't mean to be racist, but I wouldn't let a black guy touch my bike" I'm pretty sure you would have known it was racist.
Sexism works the same way. It is very important in fields where it is very difficult to work as a woman not to propgate myths that it is because it is not a job that they can do. We can, and I'm saying this as a woman that has been in the cycling industry for over ten years but can not seem to make any male customers take me seriously.
It's a little grating.So hopefully lesson learned, and you can start to look at women as people just that little bit more because of it.

I'm selling my Jack Taylor Mixte bike.
This is my pride and joy, and I spent a few years looking for it and collecting Shimano arabesque parts for it.
Now I'm broke, and I love it, but it's time for it to move on to a new home.I'm never sure what a helpful measurement is with mixte, frames, but it should fit a rider that is 5'10" and smaller, as this is my height and I kinda wish it was a little bigger.
I have not applied the new decals, the frame has some cosmetic wear and you may want to have it re-painted first. I personally wouldn't has it has all of the hand lining work on it, and the rust is minimal.
This is a new build. All of the cables, the chain and the cassette are new. I've done less than 30 miles on it since I built it.
The wheels are tri-colour Shimano 600, 8 speed but because of the spacing on the frame the mech is set to not go into the smallest cog.
The headset, cranks, chainrings, and mechs are Shimano 600 arabesque, the brakes are Mapec (I think).Pick up only from Green Lanes.
This is the groupset on another frame:
£460 for the complete bike.
Please make me an offer if you are at all interested, I'm also open to the idea of just selling the frame.

Perhaps you could then confirm the veracity of a rumour that when around crust circles in the late 80? I it true that in fact ENT were all bankers/businessmen who would change from their fancy suits and neat hair cuts into their never washed studded leathers and wigs etc just before gigs?
