Post by: cmorgan47 on June 11, 2008, 05:41:33 PM
another article (http://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/Article.aspx/675472?UserKey=0) that doesn't say much more than all the other articles

but i've been checking every day since i put my deposit down, so maybe other people are too

 I know how you feel brother as I was there and hungry for any tidbit of info but now I have had mine for 3 weeks and now I don't need to read as I can ride.....and what a ride it is! I'm totally inlove with this bike and it ain't my first, believe me.

I did 30+ miles on one today.  Quite a machine!

Another piece of blabla about the machine nobody of the writers can really afford to dislike.
I feel totally great for people getting a new bike like I did 6 weeks ago.
And probably it will ride a little better than the 695 even if I am totally thrilled by every bit my 695 delivers.
And maybe I am just too used to the classic "this is a monster.period" look to appreciate the new design.
But in the end its fugly and it will only get better when you blend it.
I need to write the "Will it blend" guy....that would be a hilarious episode  [evil]
Just like this :

Now that I have my 696, I'm done reading mags with 696 article.
It's the real deal Holyfield! and I can make my own real life review.
