If one ride's them, when they are boring or when they do not make you smile when looking at them.

When one needs a bigger sailboat.

For me I have acquired to get what I wanted in the past and could not get due to $ or timing.

The Keepers:

First style graphic Masi GC, First saw the graphics in 1972 wanted one immediately Twin plate crown Masi GC, as close to my first Masi as I will get. Carlsbad track bike had since new, Sentimental reasons My LeJeune Professional, won first state championship on it Carlsbad road bike, next serial number before the track bike C.N.C. Special, well built, rides well. 49cm Gios pro, for the wife. (could be replaced by another 49cm in the future)

the others are interesting but not on the "got to keep" list.

The interesting:

Medici, from the Union Pacific Avenue works Raleigh International, kind of elegant, almost a time capsule Coppi - Fiorelli, what a cool fork

The others were cost effective and intriguing at the time.
