riiiight...

But I did buy a bike.

This one.I'm getting a computer put on it tonight so I can measure distance and speed and stuff. I went to Performance Bikes at Perimeter they are having a big sale that ends tomorrow. I think the 2007s start coming out now. Performance bikes give you lifetime tune ups and repairs. Also if you buy anything

That's totally cool, I just go in the order of my computer display, so do whatever you need!

Hooray!!!

Oh, if only we lived near each other we could ride together! Some day, some day my commie friend!

Yes - why must these walls divide us so?? In a true democratic country - we could vote to move NY next to GA. :-)

I would also look at the buy-it-now bikes. Know at least your inseam and use that as a guide for stand-over height. It probably won't fit perfectly based on that, but if you took it to a local bike shop and asked them to help fit it to you (seat and handlebar adjustments) it would still be cheaper than buying new.

Or you could go to Walmart (blech) and get a brand new GMC Denali road bike for $150, but I wouldn't recommend that. They're not bad beginner bikes, but you can do better with something used.

OR, you can check out craigslist and local garage sales. I'll bet Atlanta has a lot more opportunity for finding a bike like that than Rochester.

There's no reason you can't get a bike : )

well?

have you been on it yet? you must've, it's been 20 years since you bought it! How do you like it!? Is it everything you'd dreamed it would be!?
