Popped into the LBS this afternoon, whereupon entering I am immediately struck pretty jealous by someone less than half my age! The lad can only have been about 13 or 14 tops, he's in there with his dad picking up his very own brand spanking new tricked out Santa Cruz Superlight with XT, Rebas and the lot!
Fair play to him though... I had to wait until I was at least oooooh... 16, and had a summer job, to buy anything remotely similar! 😉
Another one in the fold though... Good on him... 😀
Always handy if you follow your Dad's hobby, probably why my son has three bikes...
Not at all. The green-ey'd monster, which doth mock the meat it feeds on is a healthy thing at times.
I have just had a bout of Bell Envy. While pootling across town on my get-around-town shopper, a rather glamorous lady passed the other way, through some pedestrians (crossing the road on the red man, natch). As she approached, on her Pashley, she hit the bell. Man what a sound! I need one!
Jealousy is a good motivator!

Bells are for winners. You can sate that urge and be a better person all in one.
'yeah, but i'm a better rider......oh. i'm evidently not.'
