My wife says I have a problem!

[Cactus459]

I have somewhere between 35-40 old vintage mountain bikes. Today went past a garage sale saw bikes and had to stop and check them out. Was a matching set of 1990 Mongoose Switchback bikes in almost perfect condition, what I think is 100% original! The seller wanted $50 for both bikes and I didn't even try to talk him down. The wife thinks I need an intervention!

Does anyone else have this problem?

What problem?

 

[widowmaker]

I don't see a problem with that at all

My first guess was not knowing how to haggle, it was a garage sale after all!

Circumvent the problem , marry an Australian . No worries .

It's not a problem, it's a recognised condition, velodius hoarderitus.
There is no cure, running out of space slows the symptoms but it always finds a way back, best to just roll with it

And if you can't beat them; join them - I have just aquired my 6th (the 2 folders are 'family' bikes, honest)

I'd say you've got the perfect wife if you've already got to that many without a divorce!
