Another Trip to the Bike Shop

I used to be into motorcycle porn, but lately it's all bicycle porn. I can't get enough of bike magazines and I obsess over the Specialized Road and Mountain catalogs. I can't wait until the new ones come out.

I love the Bike Source shop they built up at Ranchmart. I mostly work with Jason who has promised to put me on  few different bikes when I when I am ready to buy. A great guy. I feel guilty going in there so much, so I try to buy something each time I go in.

Today I was talking with this girl about the Secteur. She just about convinced me that this is the bike I should buy. I see that it has its merits. It's a bit more than I'm ready to spend, but it would make a great bike for Centuries or Gran Fondos, something I want to eventually do a lot of. Of course, the Roubaix is the carbon version. A tricked out Secteur or maybe a Roubaix is probably the dream bike for me to buy some day. The Tarmac is a great race bike, but it's not as versatile.

So, a road bike, an endurance bike, a cruiser and Rockhopper. I'll be set. Amy is going to be pissed! A lot cheaper than a Harley, though. I want one of those too, which is the problem.
