As a newbie here I've got a question I'm sure has been discussed before but alas I can't find the archives anymore (at least not anything older than 30 days) to search.

Are there bikes that due to value and not condition that you don't ride? Would you ride a Confente? a paramount 25th anniversary with gold plated fork etc.?

I'm just curious about this, as all of my bikes and any I plan to purchase are ridden.
