Bicycle Lust

[CyclChyk]

The Orbea's are sweet! I've been overly exposed to them the last couple months as my DH is in the market for one. The '07's are arriving in our LBS this week.

I hope they look as good in person.

I am actually a teeny tiny bit disappointed that we made my bike fit me, because my friend at the bike shop offered me a sweet deal on the '06 Dama Mitis, and it's not that expensive a bike, particularly with the discount. But we have a major vacation planned in January and I haven't bought the plane tickets yet, my husband is on a new job contract that might not work out, and my job is becoming increasingly unbearable. Not the time to buy a bike. I bought a new helmet instead, and I have given myself advance permission to buy whatever bike I want -- a custom frame, diamond-studded, whatever fancy metal is trendy by then -- for my fortieth birthday, which is only two and half years away.

Heh. I know. "I have to go to the beach for three weeks! I can't buy a bike!" Someone hold a telethon for me, would you?
