I've found the ride...

Quintana Roo Kilo Picture | Specs

And now its just a matter of getting the damned thing in my garage. Not for lack of space but rather for lack of funds. A certain local quick oil change place destroyed my car so the money is all tied up in whether or not I have to pay for their incompetence. That situation though is hopefully coming to an end we're I think passed the half way point. Therefore I will be going to look at my new toy Saturday morning. This is just a slight detour to where Im really going taking the baby girl to the zoo.

Im new to bicycles and have a total lack of mechanical inclination so I've had to do a whole lot of research, suffering the humiliation of having to ask a bunch of stupid questions to the true bike geeks etc. before I finally made up my mind. Like anything no matter what question you ask you feel like someone is looking down their nose at you. I can tell you this was no small task.

Trying to find a good deal with the right components while spending just enough to get you where you want to be without having my wife wrap the frame around my neck is next to impossible. I searched high and low for used but everything I found was either not enough or way more than I was willing to spend. I can assure you though I think if I spent $500 or $5000 (Yes, there are $5000 bicycles. I couldnt believe it either). I would get the same response. I can live with that....I hope. If you dont see me post for a while I would like to be buried at sea with my bicycle. Thank you.
