CAAD 10-4 Rival or a 2011 1 OZ. Gold Eagle
You read constant news stories of hyperinflation and the world economy imploding--tsunamis, nuclear fallout, riots, 2012, Charlie Sheen.
You have a choice of stroking a 1OZ gold eagle in the fetal position in your fallout bunker, stocked with dried goods or...
riding the roads and enjoying life on a CAAD 10-4 Rival until the world ends in 2012.
Which do you choose?

Can I choose a comparably priced bike so that I don't have some idiot telling me that I have to join some CAAD cheerleading thread?

We need (but not really) a numismatic coin collector to come in here to tell us about the details of a 1 OZ. Canadian Gold Maple, comparing it to a 1 OZ. US Gold Eagle.

Buy the coin if your planning to purchase bike later. I bought 4 1oz coins in '04 for $400 a piece. Now I can buy 4 caad 10-4's if i sell the coins. FYI gold eagles are not 100% gold(bullion).

Why would you buy gold when it is at or close to its all time high. It is usually not a good investment to buy at the top.
A bike is a consumable or luxury item. If you are truely wanting an investment how about a mutual fund, kept for 10-15 years?

Actually some dude parks outside my apt. all day long with his pickup covered in Judgement Day: May 21, 2011 signs. I wonder if he'll stop parking there on the 22nd.
This is the link to the drivel he believes in:
