Welcome to the club. There is an increasing number of us that are foregoing the (ahem) "delights" of scrabbling around fixing old(-ish) bikes for the simple pleasure of just riding reliable modern-ish bikes.

I have no problem with anyone who enjoys fettling but I prefer to ride. For many of us in our penniless youth fettling was an economically essential precursor to riding. Now it no longer is our pastime is almost becoming two separate activities = those who fettle and those who ride.
