more than one bike

[Dan J B]

Specialized Roubaix for fitness & leisure when the sun is out and it's not raining. Specialized Crosstrail for when it's wet and horrible (although I still have to fit my Crudcatcher Mudguard!).

2.5 bikes. A steel Raleigh roadbike, a Trek FX7.3 hybrid, and a unicycle (hence the .5).

That means I've got, err, 10.5.

5 bikes, 7 unicycles, and 1 tandem (which I'm counting as 2).

 

[RAYMOND]

2 bikes both boardmans.
Would love 3 more,infact i'd like a dozen more please.
What does a football fan pay to watch footy what with all the travelling expences too.
Its not that more expensive once you have a bike,depends how many jerseys you want oh and then bibs, maybe another helmet,those
roadshoes look good too,mmm might need another bike.

3 bikes
Road bike, for weekend rides
Touring bike for commuting (and touring one day )
Rigid MTB for the pub, riding with kids etc

Ride all 3 bikes every month (usually), just not at the same time!

I have 3.

MTB - 5% use, but my youngest son now uses it daily for his paper round.
Hybrid - 75% use, road, touring, trail, shopping, it replaces car use, this is good because my car does 15mpg.
Road - 20% use, unencumbered fun.

 

[Goonerobes]

3 for me too.

Road bike for summer/dry days & longer rides
Hybrid for pottering & wet winter days
MTB for the very occasional track rides in the forest

 

[Boon 51]

Hybrid for roads I know..
Crosstrail for one's I dont..
Mtb for mountains and harder terrain..

 

[vickster]

Alu road bike for commuting, longer trips, whenever I need to take stuff like a lock, jacket, has mudguards if it might rain (may get replaced by steel )

Carbon road bike, toy for when no stuff or mudguards needed

Flatbar hybrid urban beastie, for when I need to take stuff and need a change

Exercise bike in lounge for use in front of TV when it's cold/dark/wet/all

 

[Gravity Aided]

Forgot about exercycle, both here and on fettling page. Got a practically new Nordic Trak Recumbent with electronics and sound system for 40.00. Poor ladies at the garage sale had no idea there would then be a fellow in their yard half the morning trying to dissemble the thing to get it to fit into a Lancer for the trip home. Now in the living room. Mrs. GA must approve, or it would have been banished to the basement.

 

[marzjennings]

8 I think; a Banshee hardtail 29er mtb for racing, Turner FR for long trail days, a Cannondale DH bike, a Specialized jump bike for the pump track, single speed Fuji for training rides, Cannondale road bikes for charity and social long rides, new (as in yesterday) Electra Ghostrider cruiser for short pub social rides.

Couple of frames hanging on the wall and I guess 50% ownership of a tandem.

All get used at least once a month, 'cept the DH bike which has to wait on road trips to the hill country.

 

[lesley_x]

Road bike for riding on roads
Cyclocross for riding on mixed surfaces including trails, cycle paths etc...

Just sold the hybrid as it now has no purpose for me. So I'm down to 2 bikes and quite happy there for the time being.

Many on here suffer from "more bikes than I need syndrome" and I have to confess being a sufferer.

You're cured eveyone knows you need them all

 

[Chris S]

I normally ride a Batavus. However, I've also got an old Raleigh that I use when I know that I'll have to leave my bike in high theft risk areas.

I have a Specialized Crosstrail which I love because I can chuck it about, it's fun and I can go almost anywhere. Could eventually be replaced with a cross bike, but I'm rather attached as it is my first "proper" bike. I could easily have one of everything . I'd love a Surly Disc Trucker and a Giant Defy to complete the collection, just waiting for my lottery win.
