You let 15 bikes go?! Wow. I did that along time ago. And now, sadly, the Collection begins to climb once again! 🙄

Same here. I did that long time. Ago, when I had nearly 200 old bicycles. And now I'm down to 15 old bikes, but unfortunately the collection is growing again.
But at a slow pace, I guess that's what makes this hobby very fun
And I've been doing it for nearly 50 years.

Yes, sir. Read during my 50 years of collecting old bikes. Sometimes I have collections up to at over 100 old bicycles. Now, and then, but now I'm down to give or take 14 old bicycles. But now the collection is growing again, but at a much slower pace..
 
I was thinking it was going to be a quiet week . Went to a few yard sales found nothing worth while. Then on my way to buy a tree . I saw a very tiny sign free stuff between 9-11 am it was 10 I figured don’t bother . Drove a quarter mile decided what the heck . This is what I found .Note I did pay for the bikes but they were pretty cheep.

Would love to be caretaker of that Mongoose/Redline!

Be careful or you'll be up to 100 bikes all over again. 🙂

My collection was over 60 bikes at one time. The basement is not small, but that many bikes made things tight. Sometimes, I had to move 10 bikes to get to one. I could not work on, ride, or enjoy the majority of the bikes I had.

Now I'm down to 16 bikes, and with the Raleigh on the way, it will be 17. I have easy access to each bike and they all get ridden.

Now, here's the thing with me. I don't know if it's a disease or not. That when you restore a bike or you finally got ahold of a bike of your dreams. And it's very hard to sell bits of collections of old bikes here, and there. They're like, you've made new friends and you hate to see them. Go I hope that disease is not called collector's hoarding because No, it's kind of getting bad now. I'm starting to build and store away wheels. And various parts now
I don't know if anybody's got that seller's regret when you sell something that you love to restore or collect. And I know we room to get to our collectibles and such, but it's I don't know what to say. Maybe I'm happy with this disease or this hoarder syndrome.?
 
Bought my wife this…..😬
