I got it ...I got it...te re re re re
My new Trek FX2 Disc came in last night...I went out this morning with Serfaia of the Local Cycling Club...I amazed myself by actually doing 3 rounds of 4.5kms each right off the block! I've been posting and reading here for a couple of weeks now and am so grateful for this forum, especially FIFTY PLUS!!
Thanx y'all Biddies & Buddies

Non omnino gravis
Where N represents the number of bicycles you currently own, and N+1 represents the number of bicycles you want to own.

High-viz shoes offset the black bike and will help you stay safe!

N+1 is the minimum number of bikes you need, where N is how many you currently have, but not to exceed D-1, where D is the number of bikes that causes a divorce.
I hear that women who own horses use the same formulas.

Being that happy with your new bike should be a criminal offense. 
ENJOY!!!
I feel sad for both men and women who have spousal issues with n+1. Shortly after starting to date my wife she gave me a Schwinn Continental, in 2013 she bought me my Giant Propel Advanced SL so I had a good bike for my first IRONMAN Triathlon at age 63 and last year she bought me a 2018 Roubaix Expert because I test rode one and liked the feeling.
BTW- married 45 years so far.
