Am I mad? Cutting down on bikes....

Re:

I have gone from 12 part built bikes, to now owning 3

A road bike

A Giant mtb (which leaves me cold and shamefull riding it - I even have to shower after riding it )

And now a Univega Racelite for fitness rides

Its the best decision I ever made, I now have free time to ride bikes rather than trying to build them

I wouldn't sell a bike that I really like or have come attached to. Been there and done it in the past and regretted it...likewise when I tired to combine two bikes (Chameleon and a Solid a Flair DHy bike) I to one. I ended up with a Patriot 66. A bike that I hated with every inch of myself.

If you love the RM, get on with it and just have fun then keep it. You can always get another carbon bling machine once you have renegotiated with SWMBO. I'd guess that a carbon Giant will be easier to track down than another RM.

Should have done what I did. Got my other half just as addicted as I am. Course that means we have double the number of bikes. But she never complains when another one follows me home.

Re:

Negotiations? Other half? Why? Don't do it man! Hide them! Sounds like a very nice but actually modest sized collection, too good to lose.
