Yes, I really do have nothing better to write about today…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve always preferred block colours in everything, cycling stuff, non-cycling, tees, jerseys, shorts, and deffo socks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With white shoes go white socks and with black go black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s the way it goes and forever will be… or at least was meant to be til Sunday, when i found myself at a stall in Tamsui Market (north of Taipei) full of socks of all colours, and 5 minutes later I was walking away with about 8 pairs…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And you know what? I need some colour in my wardrobe. I feel colourful as a human, so to heck with my skin tone (uncooked sausage, usually & best suited to black) and bring it on, I say. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And BTW, these socks cost $1.99 US, to hell with $20 boutique brand crap! <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bibs next..!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
