Are we sick??

Right after christmas my wife and I visited our LBS to drop off some wheels and ended up buying matching 07 Roubaix Experts. They had my size in stock and as soon as we saw it we knew we needed to have one. She decided that she would buy me the bike for my 40th birthday and that she'd also get one for herself. Only problem was they didn't have her size in stock so it would need to be ordered. That was ok since my bday wasn't until early March and we didn't want to take the one bike home without the other. So today we returned to the shop to check on the status of her bike and got looking at cyclocross bikes...Any idea where this is going?? We use to mountain bike a lot and basically stopped once we bought our first road bikes (04 Roubaix's) After we got the new bikes my wife decided it was time to sell the MTB's. Her two went quick, but mine are still around. At any rate we thought the cross bikes would be good for the gravel roads, rail trails and doubletrack trail we have around here. Well we looked at a Kona Jake the Snake and of course they had one that fit her and one that should fit me. The Kona was put in the back and we're returning on Tuesday to talk to the owner to work out a price. So in the span of 6 weeks we will have bought 4 bikes. All I can say is thank god for the bonus she got and I'm one lucky guy. If I don't sell my MTB's that will bring me up to 5 bikes and she will have 3.

Cycling a game the whole family can play *lol*
