My Dream Mountain Bike, Transition TR250!!

I just found my dream MTB, the Transition TR250. When will I be able to buy this? (Wish...wish...wish).... hopefully I get to buy, ride and try the downhill trails with this MTB before I die. I always loved to bike when I was a kid, I do this every spare time I had, just biking around in circles. But because we had to move in manila, I had to let go of this favorite hobby or past time of mine, thanks to you pap!! (sarcasm)

Anyway, my friend just get into MTBs and that's when my love to biking came back to life and I just can't stop browsing the internet to look for mountain bikes, I even watched youtube video lessons for DH trail biking...ooooohhh that Whistler Bike Park, I want to go there too.  As if I know how to bike DH, but I guess it would be easy to learn once you have the bike, the place, the excitement and the will to learn. You just have to fall, make mistakes at first then you'll be a better biker after every fall and mistakes.

For now, I have this Transition TR250 as my wallpaper on my laptop...I just wish it won't be just a wallpaper for a lifetime.
