Stop it!!

I fancy a fat bike, have you got one? If not why not? I have no idea where I'd ride a fat bike but I do want one.

When this is all over I may be selling mine...

Why ? Will you be too fat for it ?

Not helpful

A year or so ago I nearly bought one from a local yacfer but commonsense prevailed, not sure it will again.

No, and I don’t want one. I don’t have an MTB any more either. I have a cross bike which manages all the off-roading I ever intend to do.

I have a ~~cross~~ bike [Fred the Surly Disc Trucker] ~~which~~ who manages [very well indeed] all the off-roading I ever intend to do. But that's not the point is it?

My issue with having more bikes is storage space, the Man Cave is full to overflowing

Having at one point had 21 bikes in the garage (in my defence I had a wife and four teenagers at the time, all of whom rode) I can empathise with running out of room. However, my current 9 are split between a garage and a shed, and share that space with the detritus that comes with moving out of a large family home to a tiny cottage. Yes, I know that was some years ago. I'll get around to it...

She is indeed very pretty

I think it would be a shame to not ride her in this glorious sunshine. You know it's going to rain as soon as the lockdown is over

Ride the bicycle in the sunshine!
What a gorgeous object Ruthie

Definitely ride it while the sun shines. For one thing, you need to enjoy the white bar tape sparkling in the sun before it gets grubby!

Click on the 'Share' icon, select BBCode, then copy all the text and paste it here. Delete the last two lines if all you want is the image.

It looks like this when you paste it, but you only need the first line.
