I need to thin the herd too.  Lots of stuff/things to get rid of.  Think Il start doing that in 2026!

Faffi, im same age as you, plan on retiring next year, but find myslef in an opposite position.....

I love wrenching, inventing and making stuff for my bikes (one invention might come to this forum too), and there is so much other types of riding and models that i still want to try.... specially now that ill have more time

there are about 10 bikes in the herd here, 5 currently in pretty constant use, the other 5 are racers from the days i was doing the italian vintage championship. Two of them i surely not interested  in keeping, but definitely want to add a Falcone.... and maybe something from the 20's, never had a Flat tanker....

With the dropping prices in classics, now its the time to get more!

I can really understand that, turboguzzi, because there is a big difference between amassing stuff that you more or less know you will never need or use, and stuff you are going to do things to or with. When we bought the cabin a year ago, it did mean more work and more time being spent, but it is work I (mostly) enjoy.

Current bikes:
2018 V9 Roamer
1982 XV750/1100 mongrel
1990 XT600Z
2001 NT650V in bits
