You guys are killing me w/ all these bike pictures so I had to go check out SBR Multisports new location. Man, is it nice compared to the old place. Lots of tri eye candy on display here! I more or less decided on the Cervelo Dual (even tho it's blue) over the Felt S32 and the GIANT TCR-1 at my LBS for the same price. I still need my wife to sign off tho.

I managed to get out of there w/ just some Gu and 2 pairs of Ironman socks. Now I gotta figure out a way to tell the my wife (about the bike not the socks!)

First, show her the socks.  When she tells you how nice they are, lead in with how much nicer they'd be with a matching bike!

Wifey and I made the trek to All 3 Sports in Atlanta last weekend.  We oogled the bike porn.  She was a good trooper as I drooled on all the entry-level tri bikes and tried to figure out which one I would get...

Then she fwapped on the back of the head, gave me my tri shoes, and took me home.

Oh to dream...

that's a great store. They're really helpful there & I got my wetsuit last weekend with them. I also ordered my new bike thru them (if it EVER gets here). It's tough to walk out of there with nothing!

You are centainly right - it's hard to get out of that place without spending money... I was very impressed when I went there a few months ago. I left the the book "Raising the Bar" and a box of gels - and yes, I did pay for them

I'm new Triathlons as of this year and recently purchased my first Tri bike. It's a Guru Cron Alu. The entry level bike that was offered by Guru. We don't have any Tri shops in Vermont so I had to rely on the road bike shop to help steer me in the right direction. I'll be in NYC for the Marathon in November (hopefully), that'll give me the opportunity to visit a real Tri store.
