Is New Bike Lust...

...
...inversely or directly correlated to miles ridden?
For me, the more I ride the less apt I am to get The Fever. Others
report the opposite-- more miles = more desire for the latest and
greatest ride (as defined by their personal criteria).
To a certain extent. Though I think it plateaus.
Having just gone through a new bike purchase and taken my longest ride this
past weekend I think the tipping point in the shopping process occurs:
'When test rides have been taken'.
After that the purchase is a forgone conclusion. It's just a matter of
which model size type and accessories.
Getting to know your new bike... not to anthropomorphize... but it's like
getting to know a new girlfriend.
