Funny how that just happens all of the sudden. I'm a truck driver in a business with a lot of down time. I use to stop in bike shops and go online buying all kinds of **** for the bike. I would look forward to getting home and putting it on.
That all just kind of stopped about 2 years ago. I can't remember the last time I bought something just for the sake of buying it. I did spend some money getting ready for the Hoka Hey but that don't count.
I'm parked less than 30 miles from a dealer that I've never been to right now but have no desire to drop my trailer and go over. I know they don't have anything accessory wise I would want, I don't need any riding gear, and I for sure am not interested and any of the new bikes.
I guess it's kinda like when you don't get chubby's anymore cept there isn't a pill to fix it. Not that I have that problem but I've heard about it on the radio.
