Taking the long route to the coffee shop

A new bike

I’m not sure whether two new bikes inside a year means that I’m out of control, or whether upgraditis had just been building up for so long that it had to come out somewhere.

So I’ll now own five functioning bikes. Hmmm, maybe there is a slight problem there.

  • Haro Sonix Werx dual-suspension mountain bike
  • Enigma Echo titanium-framed road bike (with most of a Campag Record groupset)
  • Custom-made Frezoni steel-framed road bike
  • Gary Fisher Tassajara hard-tail aluminium-framed mountain bike (now looks to be in very used condition, it must be said)
  • A blue steel-framed bike which was once a Shogun Alpine GT touring bike, but is currently a single speed flat-bar road bike for riding from BQ office into the City and back.
  • The first two are the first choice machines for their particular purposes. The Frezoni is there for when the Enigma has to go into the shop for servicing … you can’t be without a road bike for days at a time.

    I’m not sure yet what the future holds for the Gary Fisher. Sensible suggestions or offers considered.
