Ah, February 14 is here again. A very special day for all of us. A day you don’t want to forget. A day when you make that extra effort to show the one you love just how much they mean to you. V Day.
On this day, I will rise early, tiptoeing out of bed so as not to make any noise and stir the sleeping. I will dress quickly and quietly, leaving the shoes until the last moment to avoid any heavy footed clomping. Making my way to the kitchen, I’ll prepare snacks and drinks, to be enjoyed during the adventure I have carefully planned for the day. The excitement builds within me as I think about what lays ahead.
When I see her there before me, waiting, my heart rate increases, and continues to rise as I make first contact with her. I whisper seductively “Are you ready? I’m gonna ride you hard today.” I reach for the lube and the pump.
I love her deeply. But she alone is never enough. I need more, to keep the flames of my infatuation burning bright. Yet I never feel unfaithful, I just have more love to give than one can handle. The others don’t mind, they never complain, and are always happy to let me ride them too. They are the best, most loyal friends a man can have.
This V Day, do something special for your loved one(s). Bathe them. Buy them a gift (maybe something in rubber, or a nice bottle of something). But most importantly, take them out, spend the whole day together, share some beautiful views… and make it a V Day to remember.

Ahahah! Great Brett!
@KSManning I just re-read my post above and realised that I may have come across like a total fucking dick although I assure you my comment was intended to be in complete Rule #43 compliance.
Well done Brett. Such a complex piece: works on so many levels.
I've been so head down at work lately I don't know if I'm drilled, bored or countersunk, never mind what the date is. Thanks to posts poetry brett I do now know I'm not a dead man. 25 and a half years married, the VMH still likes the occasion to be suitably marked (and not spent in the company of the snow and rain bike for too long). Late night shopping beckons for tomorrow's commute home may destroy the bouquet.
Damn this ipad autocomplete.... Never trust it when making a correction.
@Souleur
I got a little weepy myself.
Brilliant stuff.
And also very insightful as to why you're single.
I have oft wondered if Rule #12 hasn't some primordial implication as regards monogamy.
@frank
Possibly...it definitely has implications on divorce rate!
San Valentino 2013 means also 9 years without Pantani.
@frank
C'mon Fronk, you know your love is spread thin
Mine is for sure
when it comes to my ladies, I'm a polygamist all the way, and I tell them that up front, it just makes it easier
I cannot resist Italian celeste
I do not hesitate to drill all things from Belgium named Damocles
My Pinarello girls named Paris
My phat-tyred girl known for her rigidity loves the outback trail riding is a Big-Ass-Single-Speed
and a trusty love I have was given to me by a friend is older than most of us, made in Chicago, dainty and named Le Tour
and my gravel grinder...well, we're not on speaking terms yet
