Life without choices is not a life I want to live. Since I really like to ride bikes, I have bike choices. I have 4 at the moment and a total of 13 in the garage covers my family of 4. My commuter/town bike (cross check) gets more miles on it than all the other bikes combined probably by a factor of 10. But I love them all.
If I could I'd have specialty bikes for all the different types of riding I do (road, mountain, touring, commuting, winter etc...) I would own at least 9 bikes. It's good to have dreams....
