3 months ago I went into my local bike shop to buy a new bike — he said the next shipment was June so I put myself down for a Trek Verve since I already have one and like it.
I went there yesterday to see if my bike had arrived yet — he said they’re coming in around June 24th.

I asked if I could do orange instead of black — he said, sure but you’ll have to wait until late August for that shipment
I said, okay put me down for the orange too

I then asked just out of curiosity do you have anything nicer you could sell me today
He said, I have zero bikes to sell in any price range. In fact, most of my suppliers are telling me 15-18 months as the lead time on new orders.
