I felt very bad not riding my Crosstrail at all after I got my Sirrus. So it sits forelorn looking in the garage. I put a ton of miles on that bike, probably 7-8K at least. But I'll keep it, it's still a great bike, and I do go in phases where one thing or the other attracts me to a certain riding style, certain geographic area, whatever. The Crosstrail will get its day in the sun and night in the moonlight again.

But no, it is after all an inanimate object, no matter how great a piece of technology. Anthropomorphizing it may be fun, but it's not true.
