No pics in this post, but I'll get some up soon as they come.
I've had to dig a little deep recently and bare down on getting back to simplifying my life. In the past six months, I've sold 7 bikes and 2 motorcycle. The motorcycle sales is what really was strange since this is the first time in over ten years that I haven't had at least one motorized two wheeler in my garage.
Currently I am down to my Surly Pacer, Felt "El Guapo" Beach Cruiser, Pake C'Mute, On One Inbred, Unbranded urban bike and my grocery getter. That's 5 more bikes than many people have, but I feel this is a good place for me to be. The garage looks very empty, but it is cathartic to not have so many bikes stuffed in my garage.
Priorities have shifted for me and I'm trying to eliminate some of my liabilities - including hoarding more than a dozen bicycles, half of which I barely ride.
I probably won't be building any more bikes for a long time, so my reviews of products are going to shift from "first impressions" to "long term reviews" - which most are probably interested in anyway.
So, here on begins a new path and a lot less stuff. Feels good.
