Show Me Your Rouleurs
Dunno where this topic goes best, but the C&V crowd seems the most likely suckers for, err, connoisseurs of, cycling trinkets and toys, so here goes.
I am perilously close to buying a "rouleur", a miniature cyclist figure. Just one. I'll stop at one. Um, you need two to race, so maybe another. Hmm, that's not much of a sprint train, how about a few more. Two sprint trains then. Oh, need the breakaway up front. Some more to fill out the peloton. A grupetto. Can't skip the lanterne rouge.
What I need is for someone to show me your collection of rouleurs, and then talk about how it broke your home, alienated your family, ruined your life. So that I will stop this before it starts. Please. If someone had warned me when n=3, instead of enabling, it could have made all the difference.
