New Bike

Conor talks about getting a new bike.

Answer the following questions about the interview.

I've recently seen a lot of cycling on the television and decided that I wanted to give it a try for myself. So I've gone down to the local bike shop and I asked them, "What's the best bike to buy?" And they showed me a really nice red bike and I thought it looked great, so I bought it on the spot. I've been riding it now for a few months and it's been a really good bike, but I feel like I've started to outgrow it and I need to buy something better.

So I've done some research online. I've looked at lots of different reviews, and I've also decided that if I'm going to be spending more money on the bike, then I'd like it to be in my favorite color, which is yellow. So I found the one that I wanted and I ordered it yesterday, and hopefully it should be here by the end of next week, ready for me to ride.
