A dilemma.

[Paulus]

I have already 4 bikes. A Condor Italia, a Dawes Audax, A Dawes Horizon, same frame as the 1997 galaxy,and a Brompton. But, I have fallen for the new Bianchi Sempra. How can I justify to myself to buy this lovely bike? Should I resist, or go ahead and buy it? I do have the money. All my bikes get used regularly, is this just a flight of fancy or should I treat myself?

If it helps, you could give me the Condor.

Five bikes seems like an awful lot for one person, but if the four you've got all get used regularly.......

That's one dilemma I wouldn't mind having.

Isn't one of them beginning to wear out, just a little bit?

Getting another would reduce the wear and save all the time and effort of refurbishing it!

 

[Reiki_chick]

you've got the money and you'd love the bike - so what's the dilemma?

get it and enjoy it

these bikes are built for riding

You're not really asking for help are you? You're just bragging.

*clicky*

Just look at that stem! Go for something really different Paulus - if you NEED another bike that is...

here's a thought - loan one out long term to somebody who can make better use of it.

 

[Paulus]

The thing is as everybody knows, I don't need another bike. I would also have to buy another shed to keep them in. The bikes I have got are well maintained, functional and in good nick. I used to indecisive, now I'm not so sure.

Go for it Paul, if you get the 59cm frame you could lend it to me then!

 

[Gerry Attrick]

You know the formula, n+1. Go for it.

Your purchase could turn round the GDP figures and we will avoid a double dip recession. Put your country first - buy it now!

 

[Paulus]

Think not what your country can do for you, but what you can do............etc
