Now that I think about it I get zero pleasure from buying cycling gear. The best bike is one that is light and functional enough that it kind of disappears out from under me and I don’t have to think about it, just enjoy the scenery. So I’m all about doing the thing.
On the otherhand I love tinkering with motorcycles. Not buying gear so much but researching and restoring them in my shop. Maybe its that engines are so much more technical or maybe its the slight spectre of death or serious bodily injury that keeps me from enjoying riding them as much. But I always feel a little disappointed when its all fixed and back together.
