Yeah Blueberry and Tulip, we aren't happy about it, but we feel it's the best decision.

Basically, we have 2 X $3000 bikes that are overkill for tooling around town. These bikes cost as much as my road bike so it's not like I can or will safely lock them up while I visit the farmer's market. ;-) I'd rather take the money we get off these and buy a $200 beach cruiser and not worry about it.

And yes, while things can change, I don't feel it's best to have these bikes hanging around waiting for the change. Especially near the beach where things tend to corrode rather quickly. They are in excellent condition now and I'd like to sell them while they are still "new."

Bummed, but it's probably for the best.
