...Waiting

This is the bike I am waiting on. I am very excited about it. Jennifer totally shocked me at Christmas. And, I was feeling good that I had gotten her furniture (like she wanted). I thought I had bought the bigger gift. Technically, I bought the biggest gift, but she spent the most money -- by far. It is a 2010 Trek Madone 6.9 Pro with a custom paint-job (picture below). I am so excited. I love my 2007 Trek Madone 5.9 SL, but I can't wait to see and ride my new Madone. I'm so impatient. I hate waiting for anything, but this is the worst. I am very thankful for Dale, Derric, Dolly, and Danny for not having me arrested for loitering at the bike shop. Although, I would gladly stay away a day or two if I had my new bike :). The folks at Bicycle Toy and Hobby are the best people on the planet. I can not recommend them enough. Bicycle Toy and Hobby will be the only place where I buy anything cycling related for the rest of my life. I'd buy my groceries there if they sold them.

Waiting...

It's a month and a half past Christmas and Jonathan still hasn't received his present yet. It's been ordered and it's on the way, but still it isn't here. He's getting a little antsy waiting, maybe even a little bothersome to our friends at the bike shop. But what can I say, he's excited. A brand new custom bicycle designed just the way he wants it. Trek must have received too many orders at Christmastime and gotten way behind. I hope they hurry up with it. I can't wait to see it and the smile on Jonathan's face. Maybe it will get here before Jonathan turns 32...
