Are you implying that Concept2 are now marketing an exercise bike!? I don't have back-door access to the C2 site, which is still down, or I'd look ... that'd be a sweet addition to their equipment!
Yes I would buy one if I could try it first. I know it says you can try it for 30 days. If you don't like it ship it back it does not say you will get shipping charges back. Like i really need it . I have several air bikes now but life is short. Somewhere I read the one who dies with the most toys wins.

Oh my goody goodness ... a bike-erg is now officially on my Santa list. That should give them chance to work out any glitches that weren't noticed in the beta testing. I also have to figure out how to fit both the row-erg and a bike-erg in the TV room, with the two giant La-Z-Boy chairs. Maybe it's time to rearrange the house ...

Stop Press: AJ just said I should order one for my birthday! They start shipping on August-14 ... woot!
(Forget the beta testing, I'm in ...
Richard, you too?? Can't have too many toys.)

Richard, my man, you want Proof!? What would that look like ... a copy of my online Visa statement? Seeing they don't start shipping for a fortnight, you might have to wait for a picture from my TV room in early September, with hats and jackets hanging over the handlebars ... and, by then you'd be so far behind Steve and moi, it'd be unreal. Make the call!
Yay Steve. I'm a rubbish cyclist (even after "training" for the recent bike-and-hike in Alaska) but have great expectations for the bike-erg.

Ah, "you may embed only 3 quotes within each other." Anarchy!
It's been really toasty, last couple of days, so I've been spending some after-dinner time in the back yard pool. Haven't seen any sharks to race ... but, DH just mentioned "did you see the snake in the pool with you?" as he walked past. Egads. I haven't moved that quickly in a very long time! The snake wasn't doing well in the salt water pool, so we (okay, DH) took pity on him and fished him out, to slither off into the rose bushes. Apparently, only a common garden snake who took a wrong turn ... but, he was a water moccasin as far as I was concerned. Where's that swim-erg when you need one?
