A Heavy Decision

I sit here, staring at her - wondering what to do.
She's really beautiful... a little worn, but no worse for the wear.
I have a decision to make. It wears on me.
Should I keep her? I've had her for a long time.
She's been good to me.
As I look at her, I know I love her. But, I want a new one.
Actually, I really need a new one. I love this one, but she's just not right for me.
For the long haul, I need something that fits me better. Something that will give me the support I need for the endurance.
This one's good for the short run... But I'm thinking of the long ride.
I don't need all the whistles and bells. The one I've got is pretty simple.
She's not complicated. And, I've put some work into her.
But, maybe it's time I upgraded.
I wish I could keep her and still get a new one... I can't - it's out of the question.
And what would be the point?
Am I wasting my time by riding this one a little longer?
Is it time to just bite the bullet?
Anyone need a used bike?
