Got offered a fanastic deal on a Trek EX8 today so bit the bullet and bought it. Pick it up in the week, my Wife is sick of hearing about it so I thought I would tell you guys. woo Hoo!!! :D:D:D
My biggest fear is that should I crash, burn and die, my Wife would sell my stuff based upon what I told her I paid for it.

    I know, I know, I was trying to talk myself out of it because of the price, but in the end was given an offer from a great lbs i couldn't refuse. Plenty pics on the way! Every man and his dog banging on about how good it is, I can't not buy it! :D:D
