Odd isn’t it? I need to get rid of a couple of my bikes and sold one to a good mate. The right thing to do but I’ll miss it. It was one of the very first OnOne ScandALs – anodised black. It rode brilliantly and was my first introduction to 29ers back in 2006.

I miss it. That’s normal isn’t it? For non-Horas of course. FFS it’s a bike, not a dog.

Yep its normal. Its also normal to start a savings account just to buy it back. Yep. You’re normal.

it’s normal.

Your connection to the bike is real and makes up part of the rich tapestry of life.

For me, although i often think of buying new, to sell any of mine would be a betrayal as all my bikes are friends.

I know, sad isn’t it.

Hmmm, not selling the xxl sultan as well perchance? Been reading reviews and whatnot over the last couple of days and a load of your posts here and on mtbr have come up!

I had a bike stolen in ’97 and id happily give the wife in exchange for it back ,took me a lot of years to finally get another .
