Bikes: Trek Domane SL6 Gen 3, Soma Fog Cutter, Detroit Bikes Sparrow FG, Trek Mt Track XCNimbus MUni

I guess I have six.

Soma Fog Cutter steel frame 2x11 hydro disc with 700c and 650b wheelset. Fenders, dyno lights.
Focus Mares CX 2x10. Decent fender mounts. Race wheelset and commuter wheelset.
Trek Domane SL6 carbon that's my new rando bike. Dyno lights, fenders, Selle Anatomica saddle.
Detroit Bikes fixie, set up for commuting with fenders and battery lights.
Trek Roscoe hardtail.
Volae Team high racer recumbent. Two seats: carbon and mesh. Dynohub, but lights robbed for the Domane.

So here's the thought:
Sell the 'bent, keeping the dyno hub.
Sell the MTB. I don't MTB; not sure what I was thinking.
Sell the Focus. I've proven I'm no CX racer.

Keeping:

Trek as my rando bike and sport bike. PBP in a week!
Fog Cutter for dirt, gravel, knock around bike. Backup commuter, backup rando.
Fixie as primary commuter and dabbling into fixed rando. Use the 'bent dyno to build up a new front wheel, and add dyno lighting.

Of course that leaves blank spaces in my garage, and a complete lack of a flat-bar bike
