You'll get it quicker than you think. Same thing with my Gemini. I thought it would be closer to the end of September before I got it, but I got it 6 weeks earlier than I expected. The hard part was the 10 week wait when I decided it was what I wanted until I got it. I saw a lot of good weather pass by in that time, but I filled in with magazines, maps, and ideas about where I'd ride.

My lbs were very good. They never let anyone ride the bike while it was in the showroom. You'll go back a few times and keep an eye on it, as I did.
