Five between my wife and I (but not nearly enough). I guess I will let you decide on the ownership details. 
A forty or more year old Sears given to my wife so that she could ride around Milford, NH. Not really co-owned, I guess.
Two 38 pound BT City Flash city bikes built by Gazelle. New less than a year ago, and what got me passionate about this stuff.
Two custom built Vittorio road bikes - our "real" bikes.
So many bikes, so little time.
Cheers...Gary

Well I just got 2 right now ... My Specialized fsr ..and my Gt ZRX ... A few years ago , when I was fully into guitar playin' and played full time in a band , I had like ~25 guitars !! , and then one day I thought to myself "man , this is crazy !! ..I have a couple of faves , and every time I went to pick up one of my lesser faves It would have like rusty strings and stuff ... I was costing me a small fortune keepin these babies fresh !! with new strings... ahhhh thats it !! no more .....,get rid of the ones I don't play as often as I should !!...I feel the same way for bikes ......I would rather give my love to a couple of pedigree's than spend time sharing it with the mongrels of my collection ... just my thought's ....

Currently I have 2
85 Trek 670 in mostly original nick.
Late 80's early 90's Serotta being built up.
Searching for a Zeileman Frame (80's)
and Lusting for Colnago Mexico or super
And I REALLY need that new Serotta....
My wife has 1 Steel Bianchi and thinks
I'm nuts....she should read this thread.

I have 6. Two nices an operationals, one cheap (huffy type) MTB I got last week on a yard sales (that bike has less than 50 miles on it, IMO - I could not help buying it even though I cannot ride at the moment), one Schwinn 70s vintage that decorates the living room, and two junk bikes that need some work.
