fractional ownership

I wonder if there is a chance someone would share a CX bike this season - go halves on it so they can ride masters and I can ride sport (if such cat's exist in CX) so we both can use the same bike..

They do it for private jets so a bike must be possible!
Great idea Rob but you'll need to find somebody fairly handy to share with you! There are only two races at a Cross meeting - A and B! B is you and me ..... A is Robin etc!!!

That's a good bike for you Trenchy, and you won't even need to sell that old French banger to buy it!

Just buy the TCX off Richie or risk a kik in the XcoCX!
What's the share, 50/50?
going by the Pareto principle, I suppose I can have 20% of the bike and get 80% of the results?
bike timeshare ! this is an excellent idea , in theory - just like communism and trade unions but in reality a big bag of sh1t !!
It would all work out once you adhere to the clauses in the 25 page pre agreement contract..

I wonder if there is any new bike stores that would do cx rental for each race day or season..
yeah exactly, I think the small ones might not be interested but giant stores could probably do it?

Trenchy, lay off the Cooking Wine!

CX is very seasonal, unlike MTB'ing...You basically need the bike for about 3 months out of the year!

I know only too well!

Although a good CX bike can be your road training bike, or even race bike during the rest of the year... Lynchy trains on his Focus CX bike for example...
