My apologies for the weather

[Hugh]

Finally replaced my broken mountain bike yesterday.

Revel Rascal bought at Velorangutan.

A week ago I made a joke to the wife about a brand new car (she shot it down). So then I joked about a brand new bike (and I was very specific).

I didn't think she would actually order a bike for me.

I went into Velo to check on Rascals. They said they have to check on inventory and get back to me.

They connected the dots and realized my wife had just ordered a bike. They tried to help make it a surprise. They were trying to go out of their way on this Christmas surprise.

This shop is a good find.

I think you'll really like that bike for the local trails. I love mine.

Congratulations man! After riding @Chief bike, the rascal was on the top of a very short list when I lived in Austin. The Canfield suspension platform works so well out there.

Nice bike. Yeah, Wes runs a great shop.

I've got several friends running those bikes on Austin trails and love them. Don't worry, you'll be able to ride it soon enough.
