Ok. So I think I need a mtb. No, I know I need a mtb after going out a few more times to play in the dirt! I had an extra hour today so I pedeled over to the bike store, not my favorite by a long shot, but the closest one. And wouldn't you know I found a bike that just cried take me home. So now my problem is do I go with the bike I was considering from my favorite shop or the one I have fallen in love with? They are both about the same price, and the componets are about equal as near as I can tell. One has a slightly shorter standover height which I found to be very important for my stumpy legs. One is in stock, the other would have to be ordered. One I have actually ridden, the other I tested a bike like it but not the actual bike. Both shops are close by. The one I love is at the shop I don't really like. I feel like a tratior if I buy a bike there! What is a confused Hen to do???????
Do I go with the 4500 Trek or the Giant Iguana?

Or do I just forget the whole thing, scrub the dirt out of my veins and go ride my road bike around the block? BikerHen
