February is the month of Pink and Red Bicycles
And I have no bikes in either of these colors. Please show yours.
If your bike has both colors, that counts, too.

Does purple get lumped in with red and pink? Or is that for a different month? I don't currently have any bikes of these colors, just asking out of curiosity. I think we had discussed it at some point.

That Serotta is so, so pretty. Buy it some flowers.
Just before first snow this winter I added a 1cm longer stem and LL toe clips. Two rides confirmed that the fit is just about perfect now...waiting for spring!
I’m hoping to have this one ready to ride come spring as well...finally.

That definitely has me feeling the love.
I've got its frumpier twin brother. Someday I'm going to replace this with an Ironman in the same color scheme.

And more....
The De Rosa with a nice 11 speed Chorus "upgrade".
Then there's the little LeMond Tourmelet that's now running a nice mix of Dura Ace/Ultegra along with some Wickwerks chainrings.
And the Basso with it's deep rich red.
