You know better than to ask that here!

DH and I are looking at houses and since we are kidless he thinks the spare rooms will be a good excuse to acquire more bikes. The one we like he said "Oh look the bike room would be right near the mud (utility) room, perfect!" He says I NEED a mountain bike, I NEED a new road bike, he NEEDS an upgraded mountain bike and he wants a beater bike for rain. Notice only one is a want, the rest are needs in DH's mind. If only we could buy more bikes and pay a mortgage. Now, one day..... Uh-oh that sounds like the start of a problem. "Hello, I am Amanda and I am cycling equipment addict."

BTW- I have not shown him your set up Cali. I don't want him to be inspired!
