Amen to this. Can he get a 2nd witness from the congregation? BAS(Bike Aquisition Syndrome) is a disease for which there is no cure...one can stave it off w/GASP(Gear Aquisition Sale Purchases), but it's only a temporary fix. Eventually BAS re-asserts itself and you're off to CL, ebay, yardsales, auctions, pawnshops, thriftstores...Heaven help you.
