I'd say mine cover a good chunk of the "Gnarr" to "Meh" scale..
-DH bike
-Geared, steel HT with a dropper
-Rigid, SS MTB
Geared Plastic road bike
Fixed, heavy steel Winter (and summer) commuter
Got rid of BMX and jump bikes as they simply weren't being ridden any more...
With that lot I [i]could[/i] take part in a lot of different types of events, and I can do lots of different types of riding just for fun...
Still quite fancy a CX bike, but I'm not sure how much use it would really get given the current lot...
Too different, I had a 150mm FS bike but it got used so infrequently and when it did it often felt like I was using it for the sake of it rather than because it was needed on a given day.
Should really have gotten more similar bikes, a SS, HT and XC/trail FS would have covered all my riding to some degree, rather than trying to cover too broad a spectrum and always being on the wrong bike.
An odd fs / slopestyle type 4x bike with 150 revs and 100mm on the back which serves as my do it all mtb.. and a tripster atr which is my do it all road / cx / gravel bike.
Throw in an assortment of tyres and forks and I sort of have it covered
SS 26er
SS Fatbike
Fixed Fatbike
Fixed 29er
commuter
fixed road bike
cruiser
trials bike
SS race 26er
I really must have a clearout.............
Fixed Fatbike
Wins 'most niche' award.
Fairly. Bfe for all round riding, Covert for Alps/away trips. They both have same wheels, brakes etc though. Both have adjustable travel forks.
red, white, orange and a blue one on order 😀

I,ve got two bikes ,an oldish thorn xtc and a 6 year old rocky mountain element f/s,so pretty different I guess,i would get a nice new f/s bike if I had any money but you be very sad if anything happened to the thorn.
Not bad, andrewh. My track bike is further out than your TT bike though, and my Patriot is similar to your Stinky, but then again you have coil springs.. hmm..
Anyone own both a track bike and a DH?
unicycle to kiddyback tandem, via recumbent KMX kart. With a handful of road, track, TT and mtb bikes for mainstream, and a dutch ladies roadster for shopping.
How's that?
I don't have a DH bike *shudder*
Steel SS CX (discs, slicks and mudguards) - commuter
Steel Geared CX (diss, slicks=roadie)
Steel rigid SS 29er (winter mtb)
Steel hardtail 29er (1x10)
All variations on a theme but all get used for a purpose. I keep fancying a bouncy bike but I think it just wouldn't get used for the type of riding I do...
Probably a bit too closely grouped in "middle of the road" spec when I start to think about it...
456EVOTi - 140mm /65.n deg / dual ply tubeless / 2x9
LV 301 - 160mm /65.n deg / dual ply tubeless / 2x10
Patriot - 180mm / 65.n deg / dual ply tubeless / 2x9
Think the Patriot might have to go to make room for a LV601, at least that should get me to 64.n deg 😛
Stepthru Dutch 3spd behemoth made of Hi Ten and increased gravity that weighs more than double the
Flyweight alu 3x9 XC which cannot travel in the boot like the
20" cromo folder which sits unloved (almost hated) in the corner for most of it's life.
All go fwd when I pedal yet each one can't even slightly do what the other does. It all makes sense to me.
I think you just beat there Mol!
However, TiRed has just reminded me that I have a unicycle too, where that come in the spectrum relative to your track bike?
Errr. There is more than one track bike 😉 . Since the unicycle is steel, it has more in common with the vintage one, as opposed to the alloy Dolan.
Of course there are two further fixed wheel road bikes as well.
I don't have a folder any more - but have owned a Raleigh 20, Brompton, Airframe (no. 87) and an Airnimal Rhino.
Still don't have a proper recumbent. A Mango velomobile would be my choice.

Well.. I started thinking about it then I realised that unicycles are not bikes 🙂
26" P7 on 120mm front end
26" Keewee cromo 8
Both steel but very different to ride. No road bikes here, no interest since a car tried to smash me to bits nearly 20 years ago.
26" 100m HT (2 x 9)
700c disc braked Hybrid (2x9 - winter road bike)
Giant Defy 1 roadie (for dry roads)

the photo doesnt really show short that polo bike is. end to end the front edge of the tyre only JUST comes up to the front axle on my 29er. turns rapid!
hmmm... at the one end I have a classic steel hardtail frame with a rigid carbon fork and 2.35 knobblies
at the other I have a classic steel hardtail frame with a rigid steel fork and 2.35 slicks
Oh... and a customised unicycle 🙂
one has fat tyres...the other has skinny ones
one has suspension...the other has nothing
one is slow...the other is fast
one cost a lot...the other one didnt cost a lot
one is blue...the other is orange
one has a name...the other doesnt
one lives upstairs...the other lives downstairs
I realised that unicycles are not bikes
No, but [url= http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/former-world-champion-shows-off-artistic-cycling-skills-video-146596 ]bikes can be unicycles[/url] 😯
I've got a road bike, a 140mm HT and a 100mm HT currently with slicks on.
I would like more travel and more bounce at that end of my spectrum.
Road bike
150mm full suss 26
100mm HT 29er
1990 Kona Explosif with slicks for general use
