Sounds to me like you just got your good weather bike and the old one can be your rain bike! Slap some fenders and buddy flaps on that puppy and you're good to go.

I agree with Kfergos. Not to mention if you have a guest you have a bike for them to ride.
In a couple years, if you've never used it, sell it on craigslist!Last edited by Biciclista; 04-18-2011 at 12:14 PM.

Thanks to everyone who weighted in! I think I will indeed keep it for now, try to fit some permanent fenders on it, and hang it in the basement for the winter. One issue with that bike actually was that I was never able to really fit fenders properly on it, it was very awkward, but perhaps if we're not worried about the aesthetics of it and if we don't mind making things permanent it will be easier to make dry rides happen!
Maybe I could get a slightly shorter stem, too, on the cheap, and resolve part of the reach issue... But not now. For now, I'll just enjoy the new kid on the block!
