Maybe it's a bad disc, but I just got fed up with the amount of attention they needed every day.
    Oh, no. You...you... I'm speechless And congratulations!

    Does it fit in (and match) the Jeep?

    The Jeep is white so everything matches I already sold the Trek to a girl at work. She took it home today. The Vita will be in mid-week next week and it will be my new commuter. I'll be in Palo Alto - meetings at Stanford - up until then so I won't be commuting anyway.

    IBrakeforPastry took the exact thoughts out of my mind/head.

    I don't know whether to be excited or surprised or jealous at TrekDiana's collection.

    But, hey, she did sell one off while a new one is coming in.

    I'm sure all of TeamEstrogen is awaiting to see if your n+1 bike number grows past six.

    Hey! I know it sounds like a lot, but I have a road bike and mountain bike in each house and a commuter bike to ride to work. The last two purchases have been replacements for bikes I sold, so they weren't in addition to what I already had.

    Congrats. LadyHamilton for new bike.

    TrekDiana: I'm glad to have bikes at different home city locations. Even if for one of the cities I don't visit as much (because I lack enough vacation days) ...it still saves me bucks annually to ship the bike so I can go cycling daily for 1-3 wks. (or renting a bike that fits me. Finding a bike to rent that fits me is a real headache.). And a public share bike won't do it, since we inevitably go for a mini bike tour trip out of town or for long multi-hr. rides.

    I also forgot to mention that I think that TrekDiana is morphing into SpecializedDiana


    I have to mention that I totally enjoy teasing TrekDiana because she seems to take jokes done at her expense well.

    You've got a point...but the Trek part wasn't about the bike brand! It's part of my geocaching trail name and it came from walking/hiking long distances.
