That's 18 bikes. Quite a bunch. I guess there are much worse addictions. I was once in that category with cages in my 20's. I averaged a new car every 11 months. There was always something newer, better or different at a dealership. My bank manager and I would haggle over the cost of the options. Sometimes I got them and sometimes I didn't. Then I bought a full size van in 1974 and had it for 10 years. I guess I was never a car guy. I've only had one car since and disliked it for 3 and a half years. Trucks and vans seem to work for me.
