Is it confession Friday already?

wgraves7582 - 2010-07-14 12:39 PM

Come on Robin - don't ask that question!!!

Ummmm - 6 I think

Let's see I try to forget but I can count real quick with an explanation

Raleigh One Way - Single Speed/Fixie - Was my commuter but I really should sell this.  The only thing stopping me is that I should set it up Fixie and do some training on it to make me stronger.

Felt Breed - Single Speed Cross Bike - Just a sweet bike that was relatively inexpensive and I have a hard time parting with this one because I throw slicks on it and it gives me a great road workout on a single speed

Felt Niner Elite - 29'er Mountain Bike - This one stays unless I upgrade and then I will let my son have it in a couple of years.

Bianchi M.U.S.S. - 26" Single Speed Mountain Bike - My winter snowmobile trail bike - This one stays also even though it hangs all summer long (or at least until I put it back together and clean up the brakesd.

Masi Randonneur - Touring Bike but I am converting it to my speed bike for some races

Salsa Vaya - Commuter/Adventure bike - this one is staying also.  Has my racks/fenders on it.  It is my go to daily bike unless I feel called by one of the other.

So I could replace the Bianchi or Raleigh with this bike and keep it at 6 or do I just increase to 7

Mrs. Graves will not be too happy but they all get used more than my car does!

ironannekidd - 2010-07-14 12:43 PM Since Bill made a confession I will, too.

I had a laundry basket completely filled with socks. I had been procrastinating sorting out this basket but I finally did it on Monday night. I put away over 100 pairs of socks. 60+ of them where what I term "athletic socks."

After I put them all away my husband carried a basket of white clothes into the bedroom from the laundry room. It had a lot of my socks in it.

My dress/work socks are all something with a color or pattern on. I won't wear just plain colored socks.

I also had a pile of socks left over that I could not find the mate for.

Yes. I have a problem.

And they all use way less gas! AND cost less than a car.

I am not sure what to say to a person with a sock fettish.

ironannekidd - 2010-07-14 1:05 PM

I was on the phone with my bf after I put them all away. I told her from now on, when we're out shopping, if she sees me looking at any socks she's supposed to grab my arm and pull me away.

I do enjoy a crisp new pair of socks to run in though.

You could make a BUNCH of sock puppets with the strays.

wgraves7582 - 2010-07-14 1:09 PM

I could have those legs on just one bike is her argument - LOL

ceilidh - 2010-07-14 1:26 PM
I am working on a counter argument for that one but I am drawing a blank.

ironannekidd - 2010-07-14 1:29 PM

Same here.

Best I could come up with is different bikes work different leg muscles. But it is pretty weak, especially if she knows anything about cycling.

I am still trying to decide. Money is tight but the DH decided to do this "run for the state house" and I am thinking I need equal time for what I want to do as well. We had a huge argument about my running the St. Petersburg 1/2 M in November. Even though I signed up for it after talking with him and him agreeing that it would be fun. (I won that one, I was going alone, now we are both going )We are camping at a nearby state park so it isn't that expensive. We can drive in a long day. California is gonna be more money. Still, I can get miles for most of the cost of the flight(s) (if DH comes along).
Sigh. I have to make a decision soon.

mndymond - 2010-07-14 10:23 AM ^^^ Okay I decided that's a lie...

I have gone on that many trips...just they are normally to places like Calgary...and Saskatoon...and Winnipeg...less exciting...haha

I did St. Pete last November and that is an awesome course.  You will love it.  Be sure to go to the Dali Museum.  It was awesome.
