Well, not quite, because one of them is very old indeed, and the other will be only a frameset...
According to Mercian over the weekend my '30s Sunbeam should be ready for dispatch soon, after its chainstay resto and full respray. All I need to do now is teach myself how to service a Sturmey Archer and replace a couple of tired bits.
And my wonderful other half has reserved a Cotic X frameset for me for Christmas (sorry TBC, she called to reserve it to maintain at least a bit of surprise for me!) which I'll spend about 3-4 months after building into a nice comfy road bike, with the option, once September/October comes around, of putting some skinny knobblies on to try out cyclocross.
The stable will be five, and unless I move to a bigger garage to give me space for a cargobike, that is a sensible number of bikes I feel. Maybe. Perhaps.
