Yeah, I guess. Got a 2001 Fuji with my first college paycheck and I wouldn't trade that piece of junk for anything...
Yup, enough thinking. I'll get the Randonee for $760 tomorrow. Throw in the pedals for another $40 bucks. I can switch up the brifters to barends for $150 later on. No big deal there. Its a sturdy bike with decent components and it'll do its job.
$800 for the bike, and $700 to spend on the rest and I guess I'll be ready to start weekend tours and get ready for the long haul.
Who needs a job anyway..., but I figure I can get an Atlantis or something with a job... but that can wait.
Thanks!
Hittin' the road!
