yea, skinny bike=new bike, but i'm gonna wait till i reach the goal weight i set at the beginning of the year before the purchase. by that time, around may/june or hopefully earlier, i'll be at goal and i will have saved enough to get a new one. thinking of a Blue RC6 or NX7 or Fuji Team RC/Pro......but, as usual will get the one that fits and is the fastest :)

Actually there is no telling what he would take depending on the tax bracket it may place her in. It could be the traditional 33% on the high side which I err toward as what they may take. If not and that places her in the next bracket and she only makes 1/2% over that bracket then yes, that will sting.
