Default Anyone elses bike collecting cobwebs?

I think I've ridden my bike about three times in the past two months. I have two garages and it used to sit in the front garage just in case I wanted to take it out. Now it sits in the rear garage covered up. Can't really say why, just haven't had the urge to take it out!

Anyone else?

It's not like it's fugly or something!

Can't say that I have that problem.... 18K miles since I bought it and it's not a year old yet. Now my truck on the other hand, that's a different story.

I try to find reasons to take it out for a little spin. Nice luggage rack. Is that quick release and were did you get it?

No problem like that here. You might want to make an appt. with a shrink to see if there's a problem. See Ya... Going for a ride!

Any big life style changes???
I liked taking a ride early in the morning and just after work.
Now that I'm no longer working.....It seems that the morning is the time to ride and afternoon projects have cut into that 5pm ride time.

Mine has beensitting for about a month, first time ever and only because I had a Total Knee Replacement on the 18th of May, but next week it's coming out, cause I think I'm ready. I've rehabed hard for a month, have no limp, and just can't hold out aymore.
