That bike was $2,600 CAD last summer.

15 Klonopin and you're wondering, "Why the anxiety?"
Long-term or over use of benzodiazapines is not a good thing for your frame of mind.
You will become addicted to them. They are very powerful drugs and are more than likely
amplifying your depression. They're not called "downers" for nothing.

Chill out...
smoke a joint but definitely stay away from the pills.

By the way,
Your new bike is top drawer!

I was withdrawing from painkillers at the time; I wasn't thinking straight, I just wanted to escape the hell I was in. I have a Klonopin prescription but I don't use it much, as it really doesn't do much for me. I have only used klonopin for a couple months on and off and I have pretty much given up on it.

I'm actually just over the hump of withdrawal from a separate episode (it's a long story) and I saw my psych today. He sort of hinted that klonopin, while powerful, "doesn't do much" or something to that affect; he mumbled...He can't change anything now because I'm withdrawing and that messes your brain up and he has to wait until it settles down until he changes things.

Wait, why am I talking about my mental health on BF forums? Oh that's right...All the posters are off their rockers.

I also thought of another reason to keep the System-Six...I'd have a bike NOW as opposed to collecting a few more parts, waiting for a wheel-build and putting together a bicycle with the parts I have. I have considered selling the parts to help pay for this bike...But I really am enamored with Dura-Ace 7402.

BTW have I mentioned that Double-Tap is pure win?

Ride the **** out of it....by the sounds of things, you could be dead tomorrow! Or committed!

Kidding....but seriously....ride it! You'll be happier in the long run. If not the bike, you'll just blow it on something equally frivolous.

You just solved my problem. If I wasn't going to spend the money on this bike, either I'd get back into competitive shooting (1,000 for smallbore, 2,000+ large-bore). Or I would have bought a nice older frame, spent a fortune getting a nice repaint, go overboard with the wheels (AC Sprint 350's anyone?) and parts and the stand I'd need to build the bike etc...

I think I'm just gonna calm down about it and remember that I've saved every nickel and dime since I can remember and don't spend money frivolously (unless it comes to buying meals for friends).

And after re-reading the thread I just realized that I deserve this bike.

Bikes won't be any cheaper, later.
I'm on a mission to buy everything
I can, as soon as possible.
Inflation and unstable world markets
are an excellent justification for
purchasing NOW!
Enjoy your bike, and good luck
with your health.
Try some kick-ass tacos with lots
of hot sauce!
