How do you try new bikes? A car you can jump in, move the seat and drive around. A bike needs a fit(something for another post), time and it’s impossible to ride all brands to see what “feels” best. Love my local bike shop, but they only sell Trek and are obviously biased.

Really hard I guess !! But I guess unless you are pro, the marginal difference across bikes with similar specs is fairly unnoticeable??

From a performance standpoint, completely agree that there’s marginal difference in todays high end($10k+) bikes.
Just not enough time to ride all the bikes!

Anyone got a Bianchi they’d let me ride? Always been on the bucket list…

I've been able to try out different bikes just renting them while on vacation. Destinations that are cycling crazy will have shops that rent out high end stuff. It's hit or miss if you can get a specific brand/model. I often find they're a couple of seasons old but it's still loads of fun.

Check your larger local trails. Here, there are two trails that have “bike days” and when four or more major bike companies bring many of their bikes to test on mountain biking trails or roads - depending on what you want to ride.

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
