I know how you feel. I still miss my old MTB, even though my new one is a much better bike. I get to see the old one once in a while, because I sold him to a friend. Now, we have a MTB with road tires in the family. Used to belong to 6'4" BF, who finally got a new road bike which fit. I started riding the old GT on the road. Love him! He's the perfect size for me. But then I was riding longer and longer, and thinking about tri's and centuries, and I started wanting a real road bike. So I bought one on eBay. She's not here yet! But already I feel guilty about poor old GT who's been such a dependable if not glamourous ride for me, my BF, and who knows who before that...
