Sounds like a great list — except for #21. Selling a bike is such a hard thing to do! You have to make sure it goes to a good owner who will treat it with respect and feed it the right lube. It is just too painful a process — so I just keep my old bikes (which is why my two-car garage only holds one car).
What about the Victoria Populaire – good fun!
@Randy – if I am in town I would for sure ride the Vic Pop. Hard to say what I’ll be doing at that time, but I’ll keep it in mind for sure.
@ASC – I don’t mind selling bikes – especially if I know the sale will let me buy a new bike!
