The reeeal truth is:

	"A woman without a bicycle is like a fish without a man."

There, I've said it.  No longer need I burden my friends, or unload my tale
of woe on strangers or bartenders: I'm going to tell all of you.  See, life
just hasn't been the same since my Centurion was stolen...I found a lovely
CItoh, but, you know, it wasn't like the first time, and when it was stolen
I couldn't face getting involved with anyten new...until the end of the 
summer when I resigned myself that in the big city I needed protection (and 
excitement!) and I settled down with my Azuki--it's not as thrilling as
perhaps I thought my first was, but it's steady and reliable, and maybe 
the remembered old thrill is mostly painful memories of the first time I wiped
out and left skin all over Avenue L. 

Somebody else can figure out what this could imply about fish and men.
