Hewitt Alpine Carbon for long rides (and potentially credit card touring, but haven't yet)
Ribble road bike - general road hack soon to be confined to the turbo for the winter
Merlin mtb newly renovated with 2 sets of wheels for some proper off-road action
Windcheetah recumbent trike for when I want to really enjoy the riding on a sunny day
Work in progress - Brevatto single speed will become the road hack

Not quite decided which will tow the trailer - not sure a SS is viable with the hills round here + loaded trailer of shopping :wacko:

Sirrus most of the time, commuting, shopping, pottering into town for coffee, anywhere where I want to wear trainers not clipless, if it's wet, windy

Road bike - weekends when weather nice - had since July, done about 110 miles...need to use it more

Would like a posher hybrid but then would never use the roadbike so big waste of £££ . May treat myself next year and sell the Sirrus

I sold the Crosstrail bought last year, never used it

I've only got one bike a Revolution Country Traveller, best bike i've ever had. Hopefully it will do just fine this winter with the up coming snowfall

SE Lager Single Speed for Commuting

Orbea Asphalt for winter riding and dirty weather because it has a triple, mudguards and lights

Ribble Sportive for being a weekend warrior and organised rides because everything is carbon and I like to be flash.

The Glue that binds us together.
Two bikes at the mo,
Bianchi evenings and weekends,
MTB full suspension for commuting and fun some weekends in the forest with wife kids and grandchildren.
Really fancy another road bike for commuting, maybe a fixie, keeping my eye out on ebay for the bits to build one,
can you have to many bikes?
Cheers Del.

My Armchair
Secteur for 95% of my commuting, leisure riding, etc
Trek hybrid for the occasional commute and any offroad trails.

The Trek this year is being turned into my winter commuter though with some studded tyres.

Still want a proper offroad alternative either CX or MTB for more traffic free commutes :thumbsup:

I've got an old Sturmey Archer 3-speed which I use as a low theft risk town bike.

I've also got a Raleigh MTB which I use off-road because it doesn't get stuck in mud and deals with bumps/pot holes better.

I have my scabby old mountain bike which is about to be gifted to the father in law and my spanky new cannondale quick 3 hybrid, that is so pretty and shiney that I have so far only ridden 25 miles on! If there's a cloud in the sky it is staying in the dining room!

Good weather road riding: road bike. No scope for mudguards, racks or panniers on mine.

Bad weather and/or anything else: hardtail.

Simples.
