Shed Queens : The bikes that you never ride

Strava tells me that this bike has done 5km so far this year.

Tomorrow night it is “going to get it”.

What have you got that you never ride?

My Fargo.
But, to be fair, I’ve not ridden either of my Hardtails much this year either 😳

My cannondale synaps… Only done 50 miles this year….

Nope. If it hasn’t been ridden in 6 months – it goes.

Hence the single speed CX going two weeks before you asked me if I had a CX bike 😈

My road bike.

Enigma Ego Ti

Fat bike! Have tried selling it but with the influx of new models on the market it seems that their second-hand value has dropped; can afford to just keep it and use it once in a blue moon.

My 2005 Speccy Enduro.The last time I can remember riding it was 2007!I keep meaning to recommission it,but it’s way to good for the stuff I do these days. It’s been living in my flight bag for the last 18 months,maybe I’ll get back to the Alps next year..

My bullit has done 0 miles this year. I should probably find a new home for it.

My Yeti asr7. I don’t think its been out this year at all. Looks cool though

Isn’t this just a stw “show us your bike thread” like normal?

My hardtail (Chameleon). I love it both the times I ride it each year so could never sell it.

My Inbred has languished a bit recently, partly because I got a new cx bike and partly because I just couldn’t get the brakes to work properly without squealing. I’ve only ridden it once since sorting it out, but that was a 112km ride.

I’ve not ridden my X for the last couple of months, but the last time I rode it it was all the way to Scotland.

My ugly Solitude commuter’s getting daily abuse.

The only ‘bike’ not being ridden is the ’95 Kona Hahanna, but that’s just a frame and forks really. I don’t know that it could be economically returned to a ridable state, though I do have suitable wheels so it’s on my “one day maybe” list.

My Roadrat is sat unused because work/schoo run complications mean I can’t cycle commute. And have been working late almost every weekday, so my Soul is sat unused too… out on bigger bikes at the weekends.

I would have put up my Niner One9 SS into this thread but me and MrsBouy went riding together today in the blazing sunshine, her on my old Roadie and me on the One9. Ended up chatting about my planned trip on the Santiago de Compastella and she said “do it on that”
She’s right isn’t she.. 8)

This not being ridden is good news as it’s my winter commuter.

I just sold mine- my 224, realised it hadn’t moved since November last year, except to have bits stolen off it. Now on N-2.

I finished my Mondraker in Feb and I’ve ridden it 4 times since Theberton doing a torso if about 30 miles. I’d sell it but it’s just too much fun.

I recon this has been ridden three times since this pic was taken in 2011. 😆

Just can’t be arsed to try and sell it.

Anyone want it for a bargain price? 😉

My road bike had done 23 miles this year up until about 2 weeks ago – but I have put about 300 miles on it since then

My road bike has languished most of this year apart from the odd group ride. The old and old school xc bike has only been used for riding with the kids and the odd commute.

The 456 and ratty old hybrid have been well used though.

My P20 has hardly been used this year

The fixie, the CX and this one haven’t been out this year:

…actually come to think of it I’m not sure when I last rode the winter/training road bike or the hardtail. I suppose it would have been easier to list the ones which aren’t shed queens.

TBH I would sell any bike i did not ride for that long

My Mondraker Summum DH bike:

Only been out on it 3 times this year, my riding buddies say I’m quicker on my Reign, so I think it might be for the chop…

Strava tells me I have done 180 miles on my MTb this year. That’s piss poor at best. I couldn’t sell it though as it makes me smile every time.

bikes that you dont ride???? are you demented, who has ever heared of such a thing.

This isn’t a ‘show me your bikes’ thread it’s a communal ‘make me an offer’ thread. 🙂

I reckon my Blue Pig has been ridden three days this year. Thoroughly enjoyed them though.

This thread made me realise I don’t ride my Whippet, so that’s on the classifieds tonight. Wife needed some new forks, which also prompted the sale, so I can hand her those off the whippet. Other than that, singlespeed is for the winter time and winter road bike, for when crap weather and Di2 don’t mix well on the nice road bike. So they have seasons and all get used.

This year it been the 5 spot. Used in wales for a weekend and a few peak ride but this year has mainly been ridgid riding/ minceing.

Mileage for me this year 0.

My beloved p7 has only done maybe 50 miles this year.:-(
It’s languishing in a spare room 300 miles away.

Anyone want it for a bargain price?

Ok, I’ll bite, how much?

My email is in my profile. 🙂

My Orange P7, zero miles this year I think. Not getting used anytime soon either as it needs a brake bleed and I haven’t got the tools to do such a think at the moment. Should really get that sorted so I can do a winter ride or 2.

Shed?! 🙄

Honestly…

Stripped down my winter road bike (Principia RSL AS) back in the spring, intending to get the frame sprayed as it’s looking tatty, but never got round to it. Probably try to sell it as a “bike in bits”.

Only done 20 odd miles on the summer road bike (Principia Rex), so that might be for the chop too.

Not ridden it for years.

My BMX was has been used once this year, rode it 1.5 miles to pick up the missus car after she left it in a pub carpark and took a taxi, easiest bike to fit in a car innit…

It’s got to go now.

My 456 hadn’t turned a wheel for over 2 years until the other night when it managed a full 6 miles with a couple of noobs from my local.
