Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Usually towards the end of the summer, once next year models come out.

I always wondered when is a good model year closeout for bikes. Unlike cars, many bikes are bought as Christmas presents so shops might not put them on sale.

Oh, and if you're leaving the US with the bike, watch out for customs. And I would never advocate avoiding customs, like patting mud on your new bike and claiming i'ts old and you brought it over with you.
