Most ridiculous impulse buy ever

Today, I went into my LBS to buy this for my bike rack (it's a nut that goes on the skewer that goes through where the front wheel goes through - it vibrated off):





In addition to the nut, I also walked out with this:


In good news, they gave me the nut for free.

Nice looking bike...and nut. I'm guessing this bike is more expensive (and impressive) than, say, my Huffy Snakerock purchased from Walmart 8 years ago?
