I know, and I'm very excited for you! I saw your new ride in another post. You are going to love the dirt!

Thanks for all the info on the road bike. I'm still working on getting that Trek 2000. The LBS was waiting for some flat handlebars to come in. The guy thinks that will solve a hand pain issue I'm having with the current handlebars. If that works, the bike is coming home with me. The problem right now is that I'm sidelined for another week with medical issues. I have clearance to be active again next week, so cross your fingers that when I get another test ride in, it will all work out!
