Knowing When to Fold

...your bike, that is. Just something we're considering, in light of the fact that our bikes currently live in a storage closet two floors up from us, and nothing feels like grim punishment more than climbing those stairs, on legs shaky from a long bike ride, while you bang your bike into the railing and other people's doors and your own shins and everything else in between. And we're also both riding bikes that predate our relationship by a good number of years--in my case, 15 years, to be exact (making the bike, yes, 17 years old), and so we're thinking it's time for a change anyway--so something that would make our commuter lifestyles simpler (and for under $200 a pop) seems pretty appealing.
