I'm guessing we're all beavering away collecting stuff on our 'A' List (well I am).

My 'A' List is a bunch of stuff I used to press my nose up against the shop window and lust after, nursing a semi.........16 or 17 years ago :lol:

Just about got what I want now with the exception of a Merlin.

Then there's the 'B' List, this is the list of stuff you'd fancy owning but will probably never get around to due to space, time and money.

My 'B' List

Oldskool steel Yeti (maybe an Ultimate or an FRO)
Dekerf
Pace RC100
Indy Fab
American Comp Lite
'90 Kona Lava Dome or Cinder Cone
Brodie Sovereign
Surly Pugsley
EWR Original Woods Bike (I should be so lucky :roll: )
Corratec Racebow

and some more I've forgotten no doubt.... :?
 
Pace RC100 or 200
Merlin (any :roll: )
Yeti (again, any :roll: )
San-Andreas
GT Xizang
GT Edge
GT STS
Stumpjumper M2
Fat Chance (....any..... :roll: )

Thats it for the moment...... :wink:
 
B list.....

Saracen tufftrax (1989-ish, the blue one)
Bontrager Ti
another Yo Eddy (for keeps this time!)
Boulder Gazzelle
A bigger shed
A divorce (to help with above)
Billie Piper (see above)
 
I'm more likely to buy B list stuff, purely because it's cheaper and more readily available (usually). The only truly A list items i've purchased were a couple of RC200's and my Hei Hei.

The only thing i'm actively searching for is a 19" Ball Burnished GT RTS. I've been half looking for two years and aside from a couple that were either painted or trashed, nothing has come close.

I think i must have been far too sensible as a child, as i simply never lusted after the truly high end boutique stuff. Even today it does little for me, sure it's beautiful but i don't find myself itching to buy any. My one concession would be a Rascal in Gator fade, i don't like alloy hardtail frames but i just love that paint so i wouldn't pay Attitude/Adroit money for it.

B list includes:

Kona Hot (probs 95') to go with the 93' Hei & 94' Explosif!

Rocky mtn mid 90's hardtail

For some reason really want a saracen Killi flyer mid 90's effort

I think you can see whereabouts my drooling in bike shops peaked - 1995. Friday evening, aged 14 & armed with my £15 from a morning & evening paper round I would rush to the local bike shop & pay off part of my xt v's,GT Zaskar, Halson inversions :roll: etc

B list also includes obtaining some ti di spokes one day, covering a bike in Jo Burtesque flowers decals :oops: & purchasing a custom Groovy :D
