My old Kona Major Jake. This does everything from sheep tracks over mountains, forest roads to my Sunday CTC rides. I'm not sure that's what Kona had in mind when it was their top of the range cx bike. A snowy ascent of the Kirkstone pass back in November.

That's an accurate representation of the proportions of the bikes used this year.
I've also ridden other bikes but so infrequently it's not worth mentioning.
Stooge half fat.....Most miles and most smiles
Yeti sb95......Sat unused since the stooge but most pbs on it according to straaaavvvaaaa.....
Ritchey P 29 two miles.....
Most miles (and smiles) - A 2009 Voodoo Limba that I built up this year; has replaced both my hardtail and my roadies as my go to bike.
Most frequently used ~ probably my Merida hardtail that has been relegated to trail-a-bike duties, so does lots of short journeys with the kiddywinks.
My road bikes hardly got a look in this year, although it was a funny year as I spend much of the summer laid up due to a RTA in my car that left me with a back injury.
Pinnacle Ramin 29er - did the most commuting duties
Singlespeed Pinnacle Iroko 26 - such fun!
Cotic BFe 26
Commencal Meta Full Susser 26
Giant Avail Road bike - only got it in July
I had a rather tame MTB year, mostly XC and commuting, hoping to change that in 2017...
A bastardized Trek 3900.
By mileage, Enigma Evoke; by riding time just about equal between the Evoke and a Whyte 29CS hardtail
Best supporting bike- heavily upgraded Whyte 529
Breakthrough bike- Enigma Etape set up for winter riding
colnago cx - commuting bike
whyte hardtail - off road commuting
wilier road bike
salsa fargo - one big trip
Trek superfly full sus
argon triathlon - on used twice this year - piss poor really
Seven Axiom SL
Seven Evergreen SL
Look 695
Felt DA
Pickenflick
Cannondale F29
Brompton S2L
Condor Pista EOM
Bird Zero.
Genesis Croix de fer.
Genesis has only just been brought though and is now the commuter so will likely be used more than the Bird in 2017. Which is sad. Will have to make more of an effort to go out with the Zero.
In order of mileage for me would have to be,
Rockymountain Blizzard fat bike
S-Works Stumpjumper HT 29er
S-Works Epic 26er
and maybe a couple of outings on the road bike.
Got to admit I do love the fat bike especially with the Blutos for just generally riding into, and over, things.
Felt Lebowske e fat bike
Sonder Vir Fortis fat bike
Low mileage year for me for a variety of reasons - mainly lack of commuting - but the results - in miles:
Giant Defy - 1949
Pinnacle Arkrose - 937
Cotic Soul - 536
Don't bother asking me how that fares against target.
Arkose 4
Charge Cooker Maxi 2
Canyon Nerve AM
Vitus Vee 29er
Fat bike with chubby rider.
Passing observation though - is the game here not to state your most used bike, rather than how many 'n' do you have?
Got to say it would be the Genesis Datum, commute every day when possible.
First "road" bike I've had and it is so much quicker than any of my other bikes.

[url= https://flic.kr/p/LrZhDY ]Awesome #mtb ride with @darylg71 last night. Found some new links back from partridge green too. We adopted a outside chainring only rule too, which was challenging but fun. Finishing with a beer in the Gun, sweet! - - #igbikes #ridewithaview #outsideis[/url] by [url= https://www.flickr.com/photos/jimbosussexmtb/ ]Jim Barrow[/url], on Flickr
Most miles - Whyte Dorset
Most trips - Orange Gringo spares bin special pub/shop/hack bike
surly disc trucker......as per usual for the last 5 years.
Most distance on the T'inbred built up as a rigid 29er with 35mm rims and 2.35 tyres.
Then road bike, then salsa spearfish.
All good in their own ways
Pact Wildcat.
Most rides and highest mileage - mostly done on those terribly unfashionable B+ wheels and tyres.
Thanks again brant.
Least used - 3 short rides on my SC Blur.
Codeine .
Spesh allez , work commute and general run about
And sometimes my epic or old enduro sx
But been a poor year for mtb
Kinesis Crosslight 5T
Not really done much biking at all this year.
No1 2010 Genesis Altitude - not much original. New 1x10 this year worked great.
No2 Old road bike which still runs well. New seat & chain this year.
No3 FS mtb which has not been out much.
Note: My climbing shoes have had more outings than my bikes.
Whyte T130 C Works
Surly ICT
Scott Scale 700 SL
My on one 456. I ride it when it's horrible and muddy, when I'm out with the kids/family and I ride it when I'm in the mood for something more playful than the next bike...
A 29r fs, which is a better and faster bike 99% of the time but lacks a bit of the character of the 456.
Then my crappy old hybrid and the road bike. I love road riding. Don't like the road bike though. Never been comfy on it over 30 miles so it just gets ignored.
Specialized Roubaix by a long way as I commute on it, fortitude race, then whyte 905 for me
Mostly my Patrol - as it was new this year, not very surprising.
About 50/50 between my only 2 bikes, old Tinbred and new Sutra LTD. Can see me doing more on the Sutra next year tho.
My dear departed Yeti SB5c (sold, nothing that bad), good for over 1300km this year.
Surly Disc Trucker.
30 odd pounds of fun.
🙂
Ko a paddy wagon custom fixed wheel. Need to update my garments n and Strava, because it thinks Spinning bike!
In order:
Planet X RT commuter for Zwift and errr commuting
Open 1.0 and One+ off road in 29er and Plus modes#
Cannondale Supersix for Road
Happy new year all.
Niner SIR.9+
1. Sense Guilia.
2. Orbea Aqua
3. PX Kaffenback
4. Orange P7 (now sold)
5. Kona MinUte.
But, the Kona has likely done more trips, gets used pretty much every day for errands and nipping to town.
A second hand (albeit almost unused) Giant Defy which I bought for £200 quid.
