Bikinis Make Men See Women as Objects, Scans Confirm

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/...men-men-objects.html

Quote: “Brain Scans revealed that when men are shown pictures of scantily clad women, the region of the brain associated with tool use lights up.”

Does this mean that, conversely, when male triathletes view aesthetically pleasing bikes the region of the brain associated with sexual arousal lights up?

Could the ‘Hotties’ thread and the ‘Let’s see your ride!’ thread be more similar than we think???

If so, then three bikes that I’m sexually attracted to would be:

The Felt AR4

The Pinarello Montello FM1

The BMC CX02 Cross Machine:

And, of course, the Guru Merus:

Also, does this mean that other bikes are undergoing cosmetic surgery to match the sexy curve of the P3? Not to mention anyone in particular cough Ceepo, Orbea, Pinarello (damn, hypocrisy), Ridley, Specialized, Giant cough because that would be unfair, but it’s a solid question.

Was the Hooker, with it’s scandalous drop on the front, aptly named?

Is the P4 akin to an unattractive woman that’s great in bed?

Is test riding a bike now morally called into question? If so, what does that make my LBS?

Thoughts? What bike are you most attracted to?

Bikes have no arousing effect on me…

If I look at the ones you picked another feeling creeps up in me:

Plain and simple disgust:

PLASTIC?!

Nice edit! Feeling guilty, he?

Any idea were I can get one of those bike RACKS? Do you know if you can get a double that will hold a road and tri bike? Do you have to mail order them or are they available for local pickup?

I thought Lokelani McMichael’s 15 minutes of fame was over and done with a couple of years ago.

Heh heh.
