Bikes are going

My bikes. I'm selling some of them off. I figured the list of bikes I'm keeping will be shorter than a list of bikes I'm selling or have sold.

Stay bikes are: Snow bike, Xtra, Rockabilly Boogie and Fixie. All others are on the chopping block or have already been cut!

Why, why why you ask. Or you don't. I'll tell you anyway. I'm putting together a bike I've been thinking about for a long long time. I'm going to outfit it the way I want. Actually order up bits and pieces rather than scrounging the recycling yard trying to find something that I could make work.

Yup, I'm going to simplify my cycling habit. Money spread thicker over fewer bikes rather than thinner or many bikes.

I'm stoked about this new little project, and am in process of fitting and ordering. Don't get too excited though, it's not a custom built cycle or anything like that. But I think it will be a lifetime bike.

Cheers.

"Don't get too excited"? Are you kidding me, I can't imagine what you're up to. You gotta let us in on it!

Hey Doug. It's really not all that over the top. Not like, say a custom built bike..... For sure not near as exciting as your bike that in progress, but for me, this is a bike that I've been thinking about for quite sometime. Soon enough the details will come out. Cheers.

It's a LHT isn't it.....you've been hinting that you might like one??

Well, I figured it wouldn't be a huge surprise. Next week I'll be getting measured (I want a bike that fits me well again!) and order it. Hopefully it won't take too long to get it. The shop told me it's 3 or 4 days, so hopefully I can get some nice rides in on it before the snow flys.

Good guess Doug. Cheers.
