61

Since listing is a thing

  1. Hunter/Gatherer
  2. 58cm sidepull Sam Hillborne with roadie bars
  3. 62cm sidepull Sam Hillborne with uprighty VO Milan bars
  4. Kirk roadie bike (pretty sure not ridden since July '18)
  5. Salsa Horsethief (pretty sure not ridden since Feb '18)

Only at five because the following bikes have left my life since June/July '18:

  • Sundeal :frowning_face:
  • Space Horse
  • Clem Smith Jr
  • '89 Hardrock Comp 26-inch-deadender basketbike
62

This came out of nowhere. Didn’t know we were listing. I’ll go I guess.

'73 Raleigh RRA
'76 Raleigh Competition (main commuter, converted to 10sp 105 and tubeless)
Nordavinden
'72 P14 Paramount
Gunther/Ditherer
'18 Karate Monkey
'84 Univega Alpina Uno (klunker-ish, awaiting repaint)
1/2 of a Sterling Tandem
Soma Grando that I need to get rid of badly.

The Mrs. has some bikes too.

edit: I’m pretty sure that Tarck has a controlling interest in Nordavindens, which I think is pretty cool.

Thanks for the confirmation that we’re not normal.

Perhaps log-normal.

Definitely a little skewed right. In terms of bikes, not politics

Nobody has just one. But one person has no bikes?
