What they did to me, I think. In August all I had was a 2011 poverty model Sirrus. In September I bought a Catrike Expedition entirely of my own volition. That was it, I thought- then I went on vacation and was interested in steel bikes, looking on CL and checking out some Googled posts here. Since then I have acquired, in order:
1972 Schwinn Super Sport
1972 Schwinn 3-speed Speedster
1974 Schwinn 10-speed Suburban
2011 Motobecane Le Champion titanium
197? Raleigh Sports
1977 Raleigh Sprite 3-speed
2013 Felt Verza Regency
... and I bought a serviced '72 Schwinn Breeze for my nice for Christmas.
All of these I can ride and I will. It's nice to have bikes like your clothes closet- and there are many different types of rides in that bike closet as well. Other than the 20XX stuff, I've got maybe $350 all up. I like to wrench, so it's a cheap- and useful- hobby
I don't think I'm finished, either....
