failure at avoiding new bike

[fastdogs]

well, I thought you guys had talked some sense into me. But today while visiting my parents in rolla, I dropped by rte 66 bike shop to ride some more mountain bikes (I've been test riding them all week, just trying to get a feel for different brands and different sizes, and talking about mountain bikes to the bike shop guys).
I was riding bikes that were out of my price range, which was under $400. I tried a $700 gary fisher with disc brakes, and some $500 treks. I liked the way the gary fisher bike fit me, and the bike shop guy said they tended to be longer. I was about done riding and was getting ready to leave, and he remembered a gary fisher wahoo he had that was closer to what I was wanting to spend than the disc one. I loved it the minute I got on it, went back to the shop and said "this is my bike". They delivered it to my parent's house, because I didn't have a car I could carry it in. So I had to leave it there till I go down with a bike rack next week. So here it is....
