Default What do these bikes cost?

I want this bike. I have tried to google a price before I walk into an
LBS and fall dead on the floor. How much does a bike like this cost?
It looks so comfy and right for me. It is calling my name.

The local Trek dealer (Cycle Center in Durham NC) has these in the
$350-$400 range, depending on the usual variables.

Thanks, now I can go into an LBS without feeling like a total jackass.
I do not want to walk into an LBS and find out I want a 3,000 dollar
bike. I just relized recently that bikes actually CAN cost $3,000.
And the name TREK scared me. That price range is sweet. And do-able.
Thanks.
All Good Things,
Maggie
PS...Living in New Jersey a 350.00 dollar bike could cost 3 large. You
never know. But I will give it a shot.

I don't know for sure, but it looks pretty nice, and just being a Trek you
KNOW it will be pricey!

might like it. Yikes.

Oh come on now! It's not that bad, just for cruising around town! It's
better than a lot of mtb's I have seen. And from what I have read about
Maggie and the way she rides this might just be a great bike for her.

Well, you are not me. You ride your kinda bike, I'll ride my kinda
bike. I like it. I am not Lance Armstrong nor am I PeeWee, I am an old
woman who is going to ride my bike around town, through parks, and on a
few charity rides.

I will also be riding my whole 3 miles to work as well. Maybe I will
put some bells, streamers and and wicker basket on it when I buy it. I
like those squeaky horns. A baseball card in the spokes might be
interesting too. I'm a crazy old bat, I don't want a cookie cutter
bike. I want a bike that reflects my personality. BIZARRE. And in my
humble opinion, Pee Wee's bike was a really cool bike. And he loved it.
That's what counts. We are not here to impress, we are here to enjoy.
Live each day in your party clothes sweetie.
All Good Things,
Maggie

Maggie,

I got my wife a Trek Navigator a couple of years ago and she loves it.

When it's time to do it over, though, I'll probably be getting her
something from these guys:

Giant Bicycles is also making some very nice looking cruisers right
now:

Cool bike! I'd like to see Maggie on that.

Very interesting. I'd get fenders though.

I love those bikes. Reminds me of the Strawberry Shortcake bikes I
bought for my daughter. All pink and pretty.
All Good things,
Maggie
