I've got a friend who works for a credit card company, and has noted that a big red flag to them is buying a tank of gas followed by a large purchase. That'll often lock your card if you don't warn them, as apparently that's how card thieves often behave.

I'm dying for a new bike. Mine is heavy as sin, and I don't like the front shock. It makes handling weird vs. the minor benefit of less bumpiness. I had a Schwinn Clear Creek that I adored, but it rusted to death.

Looks slick. I like something that's close to a street bike, but with slightly more rugged wheels, so I don't have to stress about running over rocks and whatnot. I once wiped out very badly on a patch of gravel on a street. And that was on an off-road bike, so it's not a cure-all, but helps some.

I can't say enough good things about Trek bikes.

Mine has an aluminum frame so it's super light and easier to lift on and off a bike rack.
