Technically, a lighter color absorbs less solar radiation and stays slightly cooler than a black bike. This causes it to create slightly less drag and be slightly faster.

Actually, ncfxdc... this is exactly why a black bike is faster than a colored bike. Please see the scientific diagrams below, which I obtained from Dr. Boolsheet -- an industry leader in aerodynamics.

I stand corrected. Your's and doc b.s.'s technical knowledge is most impressive!

Sorry, but, it looks like your BLUE bike is going to suck!

I know, but I thought that I'd lie to myself as long as possible. Like til Christmas.

RE: Pulled the Trigger

Damn the luck and damn those laws of thermowhatever and psychics! I guess I'm stuck with her! I suppose that my only recourse is to drown my sorrows in more chrome and other assorted goodies. I expect that I won't wait til Christmas. I seem to remember Columbus Day as a day when Dyna goodies are showered on fortunate ones.
