Shes a Whopper
I finally figured it out. I am buying a new bike. Yay. No more ovalized head tubes, and tempting deals on used bikes. And since Klein decided to get keep his BigHit, I gave my local shop a call. I talked the the manager of the chain who I had never talked to before and brought up the deal with my enduro and how the price went up 300 bucks a month after I bought it. So now they are giving me a 300 dollar discount off a bike of my choice. Since the bike of my choice is MIA (Bighit comp) and they have no idea when specialized will have more, I made an easy decision and went with one of the most beautiful bikes in the shop. The 2003 Norco VPS Atomic. Its big, its burly, and its an extremely pretty army green color. Im very exited yet kind of depressed that come may 5th I will have bankrupted myself once again, the second time since January 5th.......I think I need to pawn off my dog.

I saw a bumper sticker, but I kinda like the idea:
