So Happy I though I'd share. New FELT!

Hey guys and gals,

I picked up my new FELT Compulsion 2 today. I really like this bike and am very happy with it. The dealer go for it sports in Atascadero, CA www.goforitsports.com was again fantastic. Matt (my sales person) spent a ton of time setting up the suspension and showing me everything about the bike. They even threw in some stuff that I would need to get going. I also purchased some stuff including a Thule T2 hitch mounted rack. They gave me 20% off of the rack and all the other stuff I picked up.

The only bummer of the day was that on my maiden ride, I got my first flat. One of the things the shop hooked me up with was a pair of new tubes. Well I already got to use one. Tomorrow I will try to get to a bike shop and pick up a patch kit and another new tube.

My dog Tahoe checking out the new bike.


Bike and new Thule T2






Bike in its new home along with the first flat tube as a keep sake.

It's a good thing you obscured your license plate. Someone might have tracked you down and stolen your car otherwise. Do you obscure your plate when driving around town as well? Just think about all of those scary strangers looking at your plate! The HORROR!

Good looking bike. Let us know how she does! And get her a little dirty while you're at it.

I know...I just think it's funny how much emphasis they put on it. Hence the sarcasm. Hang around here long enough and you'll learn to ingore my stupidity like everyone else.

Nice bike though...LOVE the fork. I want one.
