The obvious question is - do you have something else to ride in the meantime?
I feel for you brother. One year ago at this time, I was working on a deal for a frame that I'd hoped would get built and ridden by the end of summer. The deal got done and I decided I wanted to get it painted while I acquired the rest of the components. Here it is 10 months later, and I'm still waiting on the paint. It's an even odds bet I'll get to ride it before this summer is over.
Getting something you really want does take some sacrifice but in the end, hopefully, it will be worth it. Good luck.
