I’m Queen of the Walk there is no doubt, as riding in style upon my route. With ears on my helmet and big purple wheels, a girl on the move – that’s just how it feels. Yellow the bars on which I grip, solid the ‘crete on where I zip. Strong my legs that make … Read moreQueen of the Walk

Mine is Bigger than Yours – so the saying goes. Be it placed in rhyming words – be it placed in prose. It’s all in the perspective – whether it is real. What you boast as Big today – may not be the deal. Don’t brag to much and strut around – for all you … Read moreMine is Bigger than Yours
