Anticipation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[indysteel]

Woo hoo! I thought it wasn't going to be available until November-ish. Did you end up ordering the 2012 model after all?

[zoom-zoom]

Nope, went with the '13. I think Nov. was a stretch window. Mine might not be in that pile, either--I think it's primarily Mukluks. But I'm pretty sure my order went in with the shop's demo fat bike fleet, so it could be there!

I hope you're right! Time otherwise moves so slowly when you're waiting for a bike.

Within a day of ordering my Santa Cruz Juliana last year, Santa Cruz posted a photo on their blog of some bike boxes (with Julianana written on them) that had been damaged during an overseas shipment. I was convinced that it would take forever to get my bike. Alas, it was delivered within a matter of weeks. Crisis averted.

Something like that happened when we ordered my Mazda 3. There was a cargo ship that tipped over loaded with Mazda 3s. Mine is such a piece of crap that I sometimes wonder if that should have been a sign to buy a different car.

False alarm on the Salsa boxes--apparently it's primarily Mukluks. *freak out postponed*
