Too much stuff!!!

[vickster]

No, it was more a remark that I have a load of stuff lol

 

[mattobrien]

As well as currently having four bikes (reduces to three from Monday), I also have...(this is the tip of the iceberg I fear)...

3 spare saddles (removed from various bikes)
2 spare pairs of pedals
2 pumps
3 saddle bags
2 racks
1 trunk bag
1 bar bag
2 D Locks and a looped cable
One cable lock
Not to mention all the gubbins attached to the bikes - lights, computers

Plus countless bits of clothing (obviously I don't wear half of this)
5 jackets (I think)
4 gilets (includes a couple of free Skyride ones)
3 winter jerseys
4 pairs of tights (maybe 5)
2 pairs of 3/4 shorts
2 pairs of shorts
Various LS and SS jerseys and baselayers (probably a dozen)
about 8 pairs of mitts and gloves
a buff
a skullcap and a headband
2 pairs of shoes
2 helmets
10 pairs of cycling socks maybe
Sam Browne belt

And who only knows what else!

I think I may need help! Beware all newbies!

The mere fact you can list your kit goes to show you haven't yet got enough.

That looks to be about normal for a fair weather cyclist.

IMHO y'can never have too much stuff, not so much in the clothing line, but in terms of bits. Apart from frames and forks, I could likely put together another 2 bikes and then some, with all the stuff I've got, but I do do alot of repairs and such for neighbours, friends and family so do have a small supply of cables, innertubes, tyres and brake blocks, as well as all the stuff I keep specifically for myself.

Sounds about the norm apart from maybe the saddles.
I was sorting my shed yesterday to add a new (used) tray storage cabinet for my bike stuff, I beat your two racks with three, one bolt type and two seat post camp.
I also had a bar bag, frame bag and four old seat bags, three spare pairs of glasses, and.... Over 30 punctured tubes of varied sizes ( see my steeds on signature) that I have threatened to repair over the last 5 years of cycling....

Gawd, is it really 5 years since I started!

 

[TonyEnjoyD]

Oh, and 6 spare tyre sets - different seasons, 2-pairs road brake blocks, 4-pairs MTB blocks, 5-pairs inserts, 3 pump frame clamps and tons of bits and bobs.

On top of the new unt I have my fettle-tray with lubes n stuff, a mini toolbox with nuts n bolts etc, my hex/torx set and my bike toolkit.
All now at hand when I need them

You've just prompted me to advertise one of my bikes for sale.

 

[RWright]

Sounds normal to me. I am just deciding if I want a premade or stick built storage shed to put it all in.

Your lucky Norm isnt here he could trump the lot of you

Don't get a metal shed, everything freezes in the winder and they get a build-up of condensation that drips onto everything.

It's only too much if it's not being used or is never likely to be used.
