So during one of those time periods where I had seemed to have some freetime on my hands, I started trying to recount the comings and goings of the two-wheeled beauies in my cycling life (4yrs next month).

 

I decided to mark them down in a ghetto-graph of sorts. An interesting exercise (for me anyway, may not interest any of you at all). But if you have some time, try it. Even those of you who have been cycling for longer than Cliff Richard's career, or change your bikes more often than Lady Gaga changes outfits at one of her shows.

 

Here's my ghetto graph

I can't remember them all and don't have the time to make such a fancy schmancy piksha (despite what some think :ph34r: ) but the current one I have the longest and I have done over 10 000k's on (bought 2007) had this 'spectacular' failure this morning. Nearly fell my $%^& off :eek:

hahaha, yeah not enough columns (or rows for years) in excel for your graph :ph34r:

 

Glad your mechanical failure didn't result in an awkward ER visit.

Where were you over December? Riding 7 bikes in a month. Sounds like fun!

 

Hahaha, December was 6... and I only rode 4 of those. Of the 2 remaining, on isn't in a ridable condition, and the other is just not fun to ride.

So you sold ALL your bikes this month? WOW!

 

yeah, I'm taking up curling! Pretty expensive sport to get into.
