But I have a diamond wedding band that needs selling, and I thought I'd get a new bike with the proceeds. This looks like a good opportunity, if only I knew what I was doing!!
Do eet!

Actually, when I bought my road bike from Terry (online), they were really good about walking me through the process and verifiying that I was ordering the right size and the right bike for me. I would bet that they'll do the same even for the demo bikes. Give 'em a call!

I am still trying to convince my husband that I need that 2007 Isis even though it is EXACTLY like my current road bike except using a less expensive frame material. Ugh, now that I say it like that, it sounds stupid to consider buying it... But I want it *whine, whine, whine*...
