Bought it

C was raggin on me after I caved last night and bought the IRO Mark V that was posted for sale on Craigslist. If you remember (like she did), just days ago I listed this particular bike as one of the things for which I was yearning but admitted I didn't need, so wouldn't buy... Oh well.
I talked the guy down $50, which ended up being $100 less than his original posting. If I didn't get a steal, I at least got what I paid for which is great news--it's a nice bike. I'll try to get some photos up soon. I was disappointed there is no IRO head badge on the steering tube (front). I wrote am email to Iro Cycle asking about buying one and they said they would send me one today for free. Raaaaaaad
I'm left wondering what to do with my fixed Fuji... C is pretty resistant to adopting it as her primary bike. Oh well. I'll find a good home. J?
