Waddya mean...blue's the new neon green.

When I first got my bright green-with-yellow-fades Jekyll, the comment from all my son's friends was "Cool bike ... but, erm, it needs to be black Sad "

Then, early last year I started hearing things like, "Wow, that's a really cool colour!" In fact one of naz's friends liked it so much he went out and got his frame resprayed to something very similar. I was going "Wow, really, you mean someone actually likes this colour? Shocked "

LOL!

I like the blue, by the way. Smiling Maybe not the red saddle. Neon green would be better. Eye-wink
