Last night I was mentioning, yet again - in a non-nagging way, how much I wanted a road bike and hubby said I should spend my bonus on it! I literally jumped around the living room! I couldn't contain myself. We've been trying to keep spending pretty tight and pay off some bills. I look to him for fiscal responsibility - I'm really bad at keeping up with the bills, so he tracks the budget. I can't believe it! I've been waiting to do any test rides until I knew I had the money to buy because I'm a bit impulsive OMG - I'm so excited! I just had to share!

I'm heading to the LBS (2 hours away) before the end of the week. I want to go NOW!!!

As you know - I've researched this into the ground and I have a good feel for what components, etc. I need and can afford. Yikes - I'm gettting a road bike!
