I've flipped alot of bikes.

I have limited space which dictates a maximum of about 10 bikes. Anything more than that and things start getting in the way. Its been a little over 2 years now most of which has been dead. I had a great initial 9 months from about Sptember of '08 through June of '09 but havent done much since then simply because I cant find good canidates.

Over these past 2 years my rotating 10 bike collection has gradualy move more upscale to point where all of my bikes are either Dura Ace or Record equipted and have Columbus SL or Reynolds 531 tubing. All of them have been paid for with profits from other bikes. How much cash have I made? From the bikes maybe $9,000 and probably another $4,000 from spare parts plus the dozen or so bike I have on hand.

First and foremost this a hobby for me, second, it will always be a hobby. Fortunately I have a hobby that pays for itself.
