I'm not surprised. Prime riding season is just about over out here and it seems the dealers are already panicking. The road to Mt. Evans closed yesterday, Trail Ridge Road will be closing in a few more weeks, and ski season opens in mid-October, which means many high passes will either be closed for the winter or too snowpacked to ride safely. Certainly, by mid-November, most folks will have put their bikes up for the winter, though it is possible to ride year 'round if one chooses, especially if the mountains are avoided. There are a lot of good deals to be had on new bikes right now.
