So many bikes and no house to put them in.


That's a nice collection of bikes.

We just bought a house and let me tell you it has a 3 car garage and i'll never be able to afford to put another vehicle in it

I was thinking about getting a 911. Now I hope my s2000 will last 9-11 years.

And how many of you obey the traffic laws on your bicycles??? Around here they seem to think they are immune to Stop signs, red lights...

i run redlights and stop signs when it is safe. I certainly wouldn't do it as a car was coming at me.

Keeping momentum > the law.

I actually got pulled over by an Ocean City, MD police officer for running a redlight on my bicycle. He let me go. He was just out to make his large head even larger.

Regarding traffic laws, I'll be safe but not necesarily law-abiding.

I current have a Trek 820, girlfriend has a Trek 4500 Disc.

Anybody have experience with cyclecross bikes? 90% of my riding is on pavement, but I don't want a full-on road bike because of the occasional gravel/dirt/grass parts I ride on. So I've been looking at a Trek XO1. Alternatively, I can put some roadbike equipment on my 820, but I'm drawn to the shiny, new bike.

Picture is over 20 years old but yet I STILL have that bike.



These pants sold for over $900 on e-bay. My wife laughed when I posted them for sale thinking, "Who the F would buy them?"
