|  Uncle Sam just took my C50! I have been saving up for months towards a C50 (Blk/Blu), and have just enough dough. I have been saying "any day now" to my buddies, for weeks, even got my helmet and jacket.....until this happen yesterday... I filed my taxes and now I need to hand over $6700 back to IRS, nearly the exact amount I got stashed away for the C50! I am so f%$@ing depressed...(please don't lecture me on tax responsibilities). I think I will be riding that 10-speed this summer with my helmet on so my buddies won't recognize me. colddude |

| I'm really sorry to hear that. Don't give up though. When I tried to get my first bike, no one would give me a loan because I had no credit history. Over the next two years, I paid off my car and saved up some money for a bike. I didn't let the dream die. When I was finally ready to try for another loan, I plopped down $3,200 cash on a $4,990 bike. Needless to say, the bank was happy to give me the loan. My situation is different than yours, but I guess my point is, don't let it get you down. It's just a temporary set back. Keep the dream alive and one day you will have that bike.
