A 1st World Problem: Too many not enough bicycles

[legrandefromage]

I have too many bicycles

There, I said it!

'Just going for a ride' isnt allowed.

'Just going for a ride' implies that you have already chosen the bicycle

Not when you have too many.

When you have too many, just going for that ride opens a can of worm gears. Which bike? What route? That bike would be comfortable on this route but I dont want to go that way today.

So what happens? 3 hours pass, it starts raining and you go back indoors and eat cake instead

Carry on

I blame the cake, it planted the seeds of confusion over which bike and which route. It’s a little known fact that all cake is telepathically linked to the Ameglian Major Cow species.

Solution: Eat the cake before it has a chance to attack. Then go and visit your bikes and choose a bike/route with no external pressure.

Little known fact: pie is better than cake. Perhaps this knowledge will assist you with your dilemma. Once you begin with the pies, you won't even look in the shed. Don't get me started on the dangers of cheesecake

Yep....exactly where i felt i was heading.....trapped by bikes and stuff.....and i didn't like it one bit.

Less choice.....less prevaricating.....more riding.

Here with you brother, exactly the same at present. Huge cull needed and more riding required

I only keep the bikes that make me smile, if one comes along that makes me smile more than one I already have then Darwinian law kicks in, I keep it to three riders and one or two WIP's, sometimes riders gets to four but only for as long as it takes me to sell the least smiley one.

Ride to the cake shop?

 

[novocaine]

a issue of epic proportion, the solution for which I found simply.

3 bikes in the garage, the rest in the loft.

Luckily or unluckily all my bicycles make me smile

especially the tickly ones

Simple. Put cake in jersey pocket. Blindfold yourself. Blindly pick a bike. Take blindfold off. Choose a route with said bike munching cake on the driveway.
