my bikes are multiplying

theres another 2 and a half in the shed...

also.. just noticed the weldy work on me latest granny bike is damn nice

*whistles* whole frame is silky smooth.... thing musta cost a pretty penny once... i got it for free tho

heres me x-caliber 9 for comparison

shed space wouldnt be an issue.... but previous owner had a brainfart and put a dividing wall in the shed/garage... so ive currently got access to half my shed as the garage door is fubar.

The trek is aluminum so bigly welds, the granny bike is either steel with little fillet welds or aluminum and they ground smooth the welds like cannondales of old.

I just sold my fat bike so i’m down to 4... maybe 4 1/3 depending on how you count the tall bike...

considered that actually.... but stealing bikes is practically a sport round here... as is i dont like leaving the trek in town (its my dd) thats why i have the granny bikes... well that and the wife n daughter need to get around sometimes too... but mostly those 2 are spares in case of needing to park in town

i quite enjoy being that guy

make a little money on the side fixing flats and lights and stuff like that for the people in me street

amazing how many people cant/wont do little jobs like that when they can just spend a couple bucks

I’ll gladly do the small jobs myself for myself , but don’t really come across others needing help. That might be more related to a bum knee and 3 motorized vehicles than anything else....

I won’t believe in your conviction until I see a pile of bikeshare bikes.

lol we tried that here many many years ago.... i think about 80% of them ended up in canals.. the rest are likely in eastern europe now

The correct number of bikes is N+1.

I see room for plenty more.

I currently have 4 bikes of my own, two frames, a bike for my son, my daughter and one more for my wife. Oh yeah, and we also have my kids’ first bikes in the attic. So that’s 9 bikes. My wife thinks that’s a problem.
