    That's awesome they let you pay for it via layaway. Yes, pics please!

    Congratulations. I looked up the Giant on line, couldn't wait for your pics. Very nice looking bike. Having moved from a Trek hybrid to a road bike a couple of years ago myself I can relate to your excitement. Nothing wrong with a hybrid, they certainly have their place, but they just don't accelerate like a road bike. The fact that my hybrid is named "Truck" and my road bike is named "Bullet" pretty much tells it all.

    Enjoy the new bike.

    Hmmm, well, Proteus didn't I don't think but the price was right. Granted, I probably didn't ask enough enough stores but there is something to be said for instant gratification and being able to take a bike home right then and there, right?

    Here's my new bike - I got some new purple handlebar tape and my new purple helmet - a birthday present from DGF. I just need to get a computer.
