oh so true,
but I still look at other bikes straight away, thinking I wonder what thats like?
is it better, faster more fun etc.......
I need to win lotto with powerball
12 mill should be enough?

They do seem to command a large amount of your spare time (bikes that is) theres two in the garage now, I could buy another one today or tomorrow if I wanted to but the economics of it all say no!

I look alot at trademe, wouldn't mind an older/classic bike in mint condition but once again, econimics!!

Adam is not on his own and the situation doesn't go away, its all very healthy if you can hold off from clicking 'buy now'.

To be truly obsessed,economics would not even enter the frame when the right bike comes along.

All good...new one will be stuffed in there in the next few weeks

Warning...if you want the 'shine' to be 'lost' re bikes, get a job in a bike shop.

i thought about getting a job in the bike industry, but i knew i would lose my passion. so i will continue to sell day's of the week labels for undies.
