Lost the bug

[gibbleking]

i had lost the bug until i found this site one day..now its back but not as bad... i still love retro bike bits.. i have no interest in the new stuff at all..i dont ride as much as i used to given i have to work now but when i do ifeel great (an hour afterwards when me lungs stop hurting)...

Get a road bike or a CX bike, enter a race, plan a trip, just mix it up a little.

Go riding with members of your local area group.Their infectious enthusiasm will get things back on track

8 days to get to Dunkeld for the McRetro meet
I guarantee you wont be alone

Winter is a bind.
Short dull days, crappy weather not enough time and trails that have that quagmire feel.

Give it time and wait for a dry day to go for a spin. There is no harm in easing off and besides you've been busy and have other things to deal with.

i had a cull of bikes, to just 2........makes me happy when im not searching for parts, or have other bikes on the mind all the time.

i have 2 riders, one for all weathers, one for longer nice rides.

im never free from work this time of year, so i use the all duties bike for short rides around my local tracks and trails.

The bug will comeback.

I have been forced to give up riding,and haven't been on a bike for about eight months. The passion hasn't gone from this old fart when it comes to old bikes, even though I may never ride one again.

Trust me,when you've been bitten the bug never leaves.

Ride ya bike dummy!!

al.

ps my back hasn't been this pain free for seven years.

Mine's long gone... :cry:

The desire has all but vanished.

I'm keeping a couple of important (to me) bikes for sentimental reasons.
