Dredging...

Got my eye on the one bike I always wanted, a Pedersen. They're just wonderful.

That will make 8. Maybe time for an n-1 phase...

I can understand the Pedersen urge, they are intriguing beasts. I too am getting into dangerous n+1 territory. Having sold off an old Rockhopper and a lovely Lemond frameset, I have now bought a BMC from Soul and a Klein from Two Omegas and now, supposedly just for its groupset and wheels, I am eyeing up a Colnago with a paint job that I can see myself getting attached to. But I can still put my hand on my heart and say I only have 2 whole bikes.

One of you guys should buy my Pinarello?

Sure thing - as I'm not actually riding these bikes much at the moment, I'm not bothered about size or whether they're fully functioning, just give me your paypal address and I'll bung you whatever you're asking. Oh wait, money's run out...

Oh shit.

It's all changed again.

Now I've decided I want to sell all that vintage bollocks (except the fixies) and fund a possibly last bike ever bike.

Thru axles, discs, proper lighting routing, racks everywhere, maybe rolhoff but probably one of those crazy 40-14t cassettes. Di2? Maybs. Would be great to have no more wire cables.

This could be fun.

Fact.

4 bikes makes sense.

Geared load-lugger with racks
Fixed commute
Flashy Pants whip/fairweather speed machine
Tourer for comfortable miles

Agreed! (with slight modification to the OP)

Surly Crosschecker fat tires for off road/touring
Surly steamroller - do anything bike.
Surly pacer - summer riding/club rides.

Same frame tough,bombproof and comfortable. keeps this 57 happy as I get older and slower.
At least, I get to appreciate the flora and fauna more.

Got 16 now I think I may have enough until I spot something else I want. Running out of space though now.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
