Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

Corsair, yes, you def need that third bike... sounds like Smiley does too!
As for me... well... I'm dropping major hints, cause I really need a 4th!
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

I've been having conversaitons with DH (the frugal) about building up a dedicated commuter bike. I can barely believe he's talking about it. This may take a while...
(That would be a total of 3 bikes for me.
)
Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

I just bought my commuter/touring bike month ago, too and I LOVE it! I already had a nice road bike (my second one in a year
) and a mountain bike.
Now the commuter is making me re-think my current road bike.
I have to handle this very gently so as to avoid flipping DH out too much when I tell him I need another bike. Good thing I make the money in this family!
