Specialized

Ok, so things didn't go as I thought they would have this weekend. On Saturday Ken and I went to look for a mountain bike for me. I did end up finding one that fit me just right. The problem was that it was way expensive. BUT, the good thing is that they make the same size in a different model. Most of the bike shops were running low on inventory, or at least with what I wanted, because the new 2007 models were being shipped this week. So, hopefully the bike I want will be in stock.



And, because I didn't get the bike we didn't go riding Sunday morning. But that's okay. I can wait .. .. .. ok, no I can't, but I have to. No big deal. But I will show the specs of the bike I want.
