How many bikes do you own?
I love my 05 Lemond Tourmalet but have been wanting to get another bike so when I put it in the shop for a tuneup I would still have one to ride....lol but that may just be an excuse and I think I may want to collect a few, I may be coming down with the buymorebikes virus. I just wondered how many of my fellow cyclists have more than one bike?

I only have three and a fourth one in process. My wife has two so I guess that's 6 or 7.

I have 3 that I ride and 1 that is a work in progress.
03 Allez Pro - Road race - Full DA + Ksyrium SL + Selle Itasia SLR.
04 Enduro Expert - Mountain - Full XT & XTR + Marzocchi Z1SL
73 Falcon Olympic - Commuter/Tourer - Weinmann & Titleist DT friction shifters
80 Apollo - CX - Currently a work in progress that is slowly morphing into a CX bike
I'm looking at adding a bling bling SS MTB sometime and a winter beater

Gad, shnapper that looks like my bike room. I own 7 myself, all mine. My 2 daughter's bikes don't even count, though they already own 3 apiece (thanks to the grandparents), and they're ONLY 7 and 4. Yeah, I think it's genetic.
My pile:
1985 Serotta Nova Special
1985 Ciocc TT Bike (Funny bike)
1986 Vitus 979
1989 Panasonic DX-5000
1989 Schwinn Sierra
1989 Schwinn Premis
1989 Schwinn Circuit
I WILL be paring this down soon. Everything's out but the Serotta, the Vitus, and the Sierra. Anyone looking for 1980's steel?

So I guess I am not the only one who wants more bikes than I can ride. But the good thing for some of you luky ones is you have enough for your whole family to ride when they visit.

Let's see - I've lost count. Probably 15-17 laying about the property right now. Bikes seem to follow me home. Most are boomerang bikes - I pick 'em up, tune 'em, ride 'em, and sell 'em.
The only bikes that I consider "mine" are my 4 daily riders - 1974 Mondia Super, 1988 Miyata 215st, 1994 Trek 2100, and a 1997 Gary Fisher Joshua when I feel like going dirt. Add to the pile my wife's 1994 Trek 1500, her 1988 Miyata 215st, her 2001 Trek 820, as well as the tandem and the kid's Trek 850, and we have 9 keepers in the stable for 3 riders.

I have three bikes and my wife and 4 kids each have one. Of course, we've gone through lots of kids bikes. Our current bikes are:Me:
"New" 1984 Trek 520 - my new main commuter
1980's Panasonic road bike - my old commuter I hope to convert to fixed
New Bazooka Dakar folding mountain bike (last week I sold my circa 1990 Norco Bigfoot...kinda miss it)
Wife:
1970's Bridgestone 5 speed upright
4 Kids:
Bianchi Mountain Bike
2 Norco Mountain bikes
New Trek 7000 woman's hybrid.

3 road bikes, one of which is my first bike and dont ride it because the creeps at the LBS sold me one way too big; I was new and didn't know.
2 mountain bikes, one f/s other is hardtail.
1 city bike with racks, grocery getter type bike.
1 track bike...that's all folks

I gave my 5th to my wife. She loves riding it. We'd like to either get the frame stripped and repainted (it has rust/paint issues) or get her a new one.
The Vitus is currently in a not-rideable condition, since the wheels for it are on my wife's bike. Ideally, I'd re-gear her 7-speed cassette to give her a better range, and put the 8-speed wheels she's currently using back on the Vitus. I'd also need to clean the gunk out of the Ultegra STI shifters so they'll actually work. For now, I'm riding the Eddy, with a 7-speed wheelset, until I get my Cronometro 8-speed wheels repaired. And now that my wife has clipless pedals of her own, I may go over the Catamount and tune it up and ride it on occasion.
Having been a shop mechanic, and a USCF certified one at that, for 3 years, I don't have the problem of being without a bike while it's getting tuned/adjusted.
