Thanks for that. Will have to look up some of Steve Friedman's books.

Yes thanks for that. I really identified with a lot said though I am by grace still married after 27 years

When I purchased my first folding bike, a Brompton 3 years ago, I thought I had found the holy grail. In so many ways it has transformed my day commuting on it rather than in the car. Its better than a shrink as you guys call them and probably far cheaper!

The Brompton (or I guess for many others insert your folder name in here) is still the holy grail. I suspect I will always have one when other folders have been purchased fettled and sold on. However the adventure of buying and trying other folders has also been great fun as has reading and posting on the various folding bike forums.

One folder, even a Brompton, will never be enough

I guess that does not make it the holy grail then does it lol
