I know, I have been waiting on this bike for so long, and I swore I'd never buy a jacket until I had the bike........but the deal was too good to pass up on. They are sitting in closet until spring though.....(:

What a lousy sense of priorities.

You could have bought a bike when she was in the hospital and left. I mean, you weren't going to be late for work, were you ?

Seriously, congratulations. You will be a happy guy when you get two wheels underneath you. And it's best to buy the stuff before you need it than it is to wait until you have to have it.
