I have a friend that spends all his time wishing he had this, that, and the other for his bike (Trek 1000) or his "future" bike (Madone 5.9). CF Wheels, CF bikes, Dura-ace, Trek TTX, blah blah blah. I keep telling him to ride first, buy later and invite him out on group rides, but he can't seem to make the commitment (even with his leisurely class schedule), doesn't seem to even try to keep up with the pack. How can I save this guy from wasting his money and becoming an equipment geek?
