I sold quite a few bikes that I thought I'd regret but after they are gone they are pretty much forgotten. I think the key is having a good replacement (or several). Often selling is an after-effect of buying so that's usually not a problem. The hard part for me is putting the bike up for sale. I've got a couple cool bikes that I think should sell...they've become garage hangers...but the problem is they're cool. My collector genes kick in an tell me to hoard. I know that once I got rid of them I'd be fine but it's tough to get to that first step. Maybe next year.
