When I look at people's collections, you realize how this hobby is about opportunity. There's people who stumble into dream bikes for next to nothing... There's people that will pass on dream bikes or dream components at fair prices because the seller won't accept a cheapskate price offer...
I figure what things are worth to me, and what things are selling for and where does that meet... I've got the bikes I want, I've worked hard and been lucky to be able to find and afford them.
