Don't really have to wait that long, looks like they're ready for sale. Now where's that extra $ 5K I have lying around ?

And even if they did, they wouldn't sell. Ironman, USAT and other bike racing officials won't allow "hydro drive" or "magnetic suspension fields" since they won't allow recumbents. And what drives road & tri bike sales the most? Weekend warrior middle age recreationalists, no? I mean really, other than me and Ranger, who would drop big bucks on a bike you couldn't race in a du or tri or otherwise?
