Yeah, Obessive Compulsive Poseur. I became quite familiar with it when I used to hang out on the road board more.

The basic concept is that its a term used to discribe a metal disorder that causes the afflicted to become so obsessed with excessive bike gear that they have far and away passed the level where the equipment is valid for their personal use.

I believe the fixed equal would be purchasing a custom Don Walker track frame, outfitting it with the best components and never, or casually racing on the track.

The important thing to remember is that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being OCP, it essentially means that you enjoy your bikes existance as much as you enjoy riding it. I know I fall into this catagory.
