Bike friends think I should get full-suspension).
On the other hand, I am for sure selling the Calfee and most likely the 853 GT. The GURU replaced the Calfee, essentially, and the 853 GT doesn't get ridden enough (though I do really like it . . . ).
N-2 is my goal.

I wish I had a reason to keep the fixed bikes. One has track geometry, no brakes and the other has road geometry with brakes. But I've come to realize that where I live a fixie has very limited use. I guess I could hold it for the rare occasion I could use it but that would be so very seldom.
The hardtail I sold (hopefully) has been replaced by an Epic 29er. I needed to go to FS for my lower back. I still have a rigid 1991 Bridgestone I'm keeping if I want to ride that kind of bike.
The road bike I should sell (don't really want to sell) is the least used of the three I have and since it doesn't get much use it's hard to justify keeping. I might as well sell it while I can still get something for it.
