Having recently bought my 6th bike in a year, I am sweating this one a bit, myself. What works for me is a "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy and a disbursement of information on a "Need to know basis". I would say don't ever lie, but don't volunteer what you don't need to, either. My last bike, a beautiful Stainless lugged Columbine sat for a couple of weeks in the middle of the living room where I thought it was truly lovely. Cindy then gently suggested that perhaps the storage shed might be more appropriate. I magnanimously complied. Now a new McLean is wending its' way toward us. If she asks where I'd like to keep it, I'm a bit worried as it will be a bit crowded in our bed and the storage shed is a bit cold for the poor old dear. I guess after 35 years she had become inured to my eccentricities...here's hoping!
