A barely used midnight blue Felt Z65 in my size at the local pawnshop end-of-year bike clearance. $375.:eek: I'm not generally a lucky person. It fits me perfectly. I think a cross bike is going to have to wait. I took it to my LBS. He went over it and made some adjustments. He said everyone should have a "go fast bike." I'm so pleased! I missed a trip to Brookings today to hear my daughter's choir sing because of a storm. This was my silver lining.
Still grinning,

Hopefully this will show it. It's currently in the family room since there is no room in the garage. :)

Beautiful bike - and doesn't everyone have a bike in their living room or bedroom (or both?)Quote:

Wow! What a sweet find! It was your lucky day even though you missed hearing your daughter sing. Too bad about that:( Only paying $375 just makes the ride that much better!
A silver lining indeed! Lucky you :)
I feel like I won the lottery (without the guilt of spending the winnings on a bike)!! Ultegra/Dura Ace, and blue is my favorite color. I keep going in to stare at her, I still can't believe it. Now if it was only warmer than 8°. Oh well. There will be plenty of days to ride.
Still grinning stupidly,

Congratulations! That bike is simply meant to be yours.Quote:

SCORE!!!:D
Even if it wasn't my size, I probably would have bought it just to take the components off it and put them on my own bike. ;)
Congrats on your SA-WEET find!!!

@blackhillsbiker: Congratulations girl! Rock on! That is one cool bike! :D
2 in the sunroom
2 in the shed
1 in the bf's piano room (well, 3 are there, but only 1 is mine - another 1 of his in his living room)
1 in the bf's garage (there's 3 or 4 total in there)
My riding buddy thinks it was a Christmas angel. Our daughters have had vehicle troubles this year, and I had surgery, so with one thing and another, I raided my bike fund until it was down to $400. What are the chances of finding such a great bike for exactly what I was able to spend, in a town where the only used bikes are NEXT and Mongoose, with occasionally some very optimistically priced Specialized and Treks. I think the shop didn't recognize the name, so they didn't know what they had. We went in to find some Wii games for a Christmas Angel Tree. It was leaning against the window in the corner, all dusty, waiting for me. Crazy, huh?Quote:
