Roadie epiphany
I'm a roadie, but I recently went down to Austin, TX and got a mountain bike out on the Barton Creek Greenbelt. I must admit that it was insanely fun even after taking a near dive bouncing off a nasty big rock. Now I have to get a freaking mountain bike too.

I understand the problem... It is happening to me as well. My only problem is that I feel some odd compulsion to spend more money every time I get a new bike. The way things are looking my mtn bike will be the most expensive one I own.
I am really beginning to worry that I can't afford bicycling anymore.

I'm up to 19 or 20 bikes in my garage. Granted, they're not all mine, but I do have more than half!
