I am tempted to buy a new road bike!
All right, I have been tempted.
I think I found a new road bike. It is a Giant TCR C2, 2006, Full carbon, with all Ultegra components... for $1800. Marked down from $2300. I am pretty sure I know a really good deal when I see one. It's exactly what I have been looking for.
They are holding the bike and I am going to ride it on Friday. I am sure it will be just fine... but I have to make sure.
I will also get 10% of the purchase price towards accessories. So, I get $180 worth of stuff! Tubes, etc. I wonder if shoes are included in that? I HOPE SO!
I shouldn't buy it... but shoot, I could die tomorrow. My poor family... I hope they don't get stuck with my credit cards debt!
Come on ladies... help me rationalize purchasing this bike. I do have 0% interest on my credit cards... and I will be getting a raise at work... AAANNNDDD... I might get some $$$ back on my taxes... got anymore for me?
