The problem is, there is always justification for another bicycle, like the relatively new bikepacking designs (Jones Bikes for example) which also do a very good job of displacing conventional touring bikes. Or a foldable Brompton, just because. Then there is sentimentality, like my beloved Marinoni which has taken and continues to take me on so many touring adventures, but which I would not be shopping for if looking today as I want ever more tire clearance from a frame. Then there is the poor, abused commuter which gets ridden so much and so often, it becomes an old friend and thus impossible to give up. Then there is the lightweight randonneur and the back up randonneur. The back rando doesn't seem to ever get ridden, but what if something happened to the primary rando? N+1 is real. N-1 is pure fantasy.
Willet: Ecuador has some made taxes on imports of most products, but Pasto in Colombia is only 50 miles from the Ecuador border. You could very gradually bring your bikes in one at a time!
