Regrets
I was just wishing I had kept my Campy Tool Box, instead of selling most of it years ago (I kept the wrenches & dishing tool). Not that it would get much use these days.
You ?? |
Selling my 1990 Yeti FRO with a full Campy group.
|
Giving away the perfect Raleigh Portage 650B that was given to me.
|
No regrets...they were all loved and have funded new loves. :)

You ?? Not really a regret, but decisions are made. Things happen. |
My Serotta Colorado. in cool yellow and red classic paint scheme.

I regret selling my 1958 VW Rag Top. Idiot!
|
For years every bike I get I take a picure and put it in a separate album. When I look through all the pics, there's a few regrets in there.

Ha! I would say that I regret not getting my '67 hardtop running when I was a teen. I really was over my head with that one though. My sis owns it now and is giving it a shot.
Sold it in 1980 because "I'm over this phase now." http://forum.blu-ray.com/images/smil...d/banghead.gif |
I do regret selling my air cooled vws.

Rode a 1972 Schwinn Sports Tourer all through college in the mid 80's. I don't even remember what I did with it but i sure miss it. I got an opaque blue 1973 World Voyageur recently to compensate but I miss the Brooks saddle of the Sports Tourer.
With regard to vehicles i miss my pewter 1972 Camaro Super Sport and my 1969 AMC Javelin SST in BIG Bad Blue. |

Buying this bike: http://i.imgur.com/eKpZ2Ir.jpg
I was poor, and really wanted a bike. So I went to the thrift store and wasted $60 on a ladies hybrid. If I would've just waited a bit longer, I could have a nice vintage road bike right now... |

I still miss my alfa sprint... I think it's ok because I sold it to a good bloke and I firmly believe he is feeding it 98 octane and opening it up on the weekend and it isn't rotting in a garage somewhere. Please let this be true... |

The Bates frame I picked up from the tip, and sold on Fleabay (£60) before I knew anything. No fork, but.... :(

Wish I had tried racing when I was young. I have difficulty contemplating using 52-14 unless I'm going down a slight hill or have wind at my back. Weighing 120, rarely switching out of that gear... I'll never know.

Regrets.
I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention. |
I regret clicking on this thread.

My twentieth birthday.

IMO. This is the stupidest line in all of Frank Sinatra's popular work. HTFU and quit whining is how I think about that line.

I haven't actually sold off much of the bike stuff I've accumulated over the years, so at worst, I suppose I regret buying some parts I may never use.
I'm pretty lucky, I guess. |
