Lol, more like impossible for at least the next decade for me. I will say, though, that while my taste in bikes is decidedly more old-school (again, probably due to the budgetary constraints), I was in my local LBS a few months ago and they had what turned out to be one of the latest Addict models for sale. I liked the clean lines and the muted branding, but the Addict 10 on the floor had tan sidewall tires and a tan saddle:

Exploring on the website, the green Addict 10, with a different saddle and black tires would be pretty snazzy. I'm still daydreaming, but at least a little closer to reality with this one. Maybe, maybe, maybe if I drop some more weight with the bikes I have now.
