Any of you ever buy a larger house. just to make room for more bikes?

Thankfully, my wife likes to ride as much as I do. However she has this silly notion that 4 bikes, (and the stoker ends of our tandems) are all *she* needs.

She never stands in the way of another bike for me. But she does have a way of keeping my acquisitiveness in check.

"If you like it go ahead. But where are you going to keep it?" reminds me I shouldn't buy something unless I want it more than something I already have.
