Well, I got rid of a bike that I wish I never had of sold.
I spent all of my part time job money, birthday money etc on a Sid Standard Superb back in the early '90s. I bought the frame second hand and bought Chorus parts for it bit by bit. I remember having it ready just in time for the last TT of the season.
Fast forward a couple of years when I was 17 and passed my driving test and I sold it to buy a Renault 9.
Always regret that and I have never sold another bike since.
If I had to keep one bike and sell the rest then I would have to keep this bike. made to measure (before I had kids and could just about afford it!):
