Bikes: No-name LH drive track. Also ride an Exxon Graftek, a Masi, a Trek R200 or a RR Boneshaker for fun!

My sweetie gave me the front bedroom to keep the ones in that I can't afford to fix if I break them - eight in there, and then six (some near duplicates of the bedroom bikes) that get ridden are outside in the shed.


These are eight of the fourteen that made it out West without being sold. The other six live in the shed outside. There used to be 28, when we had a full basement:



Now the rule is: if you want one, one has to leave. Curbs my enthusiasm and spending, and keeps things neater and more "normal" whatever that is.

So I guess technically that if they are kept inside they are less likely to be ridden, but they're also less affected by weather and thievery.
