Is there a prize for getting the right number ?
(10 ?)
>Unicycles don't count
Well, they might if you commute on 'em
- I used to do about a mile at each end, to/from stations...

Ti 456 (lightish bike)
Building Cotic Soul

Current 3 and 1/2:
Chumba VF2
Giant TCR 2 (good road bike)
Specialized Allez (with Record - hack bike!)
Cotic Soul frame and some bits (robbed for the Chumba but looking to be built back up soonish...)
I've actually got enough. 3 that is.
575 for most things
Roadbike for commuting
Handjob for most other things, like taking the dog out.
Does me fine.
I'm amazed how far this thread got without any pictures! (until that horrible white & blue thing)
Lemond Filmore fixie
Ti456 long travel hardtail for big climbing days and muddy winter XC
Blur Lt 5" for fast summer XC and trail centres
Boardman Team Carbon road bike, latest addition and whole new way to spend money.
Wouldnt mind a SS rigid hardtail but do I really need one.....???
how many inbreds?!
USE
06 Norco Six-One main bike.
Recently built DMR Trailstar SS for local loops. Don't know what year it is.
Old (maybe 60's or 70's?) LeJeune road bike. Converted to SS for commuting and training. Awesome bike that I paid a tenner for off Gumtree.
DONT USE
Circa 95 Marin Indian Fire Trail. Awaiting a reincarnation.

Four here. For now.
On-one Inbred.'07
Yeti 575.'07
Carrera Fury converted to SS/rigid with slick for commuting
Bianchi roadie
Tried to whittle it down to a roadie and a long travel HT, but failed.
Plus there is a Voodoo Wanga frame on its way.
If you have the room, keep them. I always think about selling the Yeti, but then I ride it and I change my mind. Again I think about selling the Inbred, but then I ride it.
The Wanga is going to be built as a comparison to the Inbred. Then whichever rides better will be kept.
Just realised I need another one.. andrewh's carbon ASR please. For racing (badly) on!
