Trying to get down to 3, although 1 of those is a roadie I've not picked up from a friend yet. Other 2 are hardtail and full susser. However, it currently lies at 5. 😳

My daughter only has one - a specialized hotwalk. But she's only just 2yrs old so there is time for her yet!

Soon to add a carbon road bike
Mrs Bullheart is sitting beside me reading this thread.
She sighed, shook her head from side to side and exclaimed;
"it's a problem. isn't it?"
Except we then tallied up ours. She has two, I have five and there are enough parts for another thirty odd.
She is part of the problem, and doesn't even recognise it. Poor lady...

Allez for riding to work quickly / blasting round where I live when I can't be arsed to mountain bike.
In a house of 3 people, we total 7 though. Daughter (7) has 2 bikes already...
Wife did have 3 up until this Summer so we would have had 9 then!
6 complete & another 2 in bits.
A good rule to follow: Number of bikes required=N+1 where N is number of bikes currently owned.
3 but garage has 6,
Can we have pics also.
Currently 3.5, may well rise to 4.5 tomorrow until I sell one!
Upgraded Voodoo Canzo

Commencal meta 6 custom build.
Cove HJ.
Trek hybrid commuter.
Would like a 29er but I would sell my Cove if I do that. I don't really need any more than I have. Considered getting a DH bike again but I would very rarely use it and there's not much that the meta cant do. No point in having bikes that never/hardly get used its just a waste.
