I may have bought my last bike

**sundial** · 03-01-2009, 02:14 PM

I was in the bike shop the other day just admiring all the '09's and I looked at my husband and said,"I think I just bought my last bike." I have felt led to do some soul searching and to prioritize what's truly important. I look at the bikes I have and I don't think I'll be adding another one any time soon, if at all. Maybe it's because of the current state of affairs or maybe it's just me, but either way I just don't see adding another bike to the stable.

How many do you have now?

good question. I think i've bought my last NEW bike, but there are lots of used ones that might still be added to my stable.

That's interesting. I was riding up Trinity Grade with another one of our coaches (who works at a high end bike shop) and he was asking me when I was going to get a new bike. My Merckx is a little too big for me (but fit so it works great), and it's a bit beat up these days after 5 years, but I really don't want a new bike right now. We've been through a lot together.

I am a little concerned about my back up bike as I believe it may have a crack in the weld (it's ti), and that's the bike I have the lights and dyno hub on. So if there were something wrong with that one, I might have to reconsider.

If I ever get my run to an 8 minute mile, I'm going to get a Calfee Tetra set up as a tri bike.

I'm with Mimi on this one.
If I see a lugged steel beauty in the right size at the right price all bets are off.
