Bikes: Three road bikes. Two track bikes.

I have three bikes currently.

1) long distance commuter based on a road bike frame with a rack and fenders and lower gearing, newly re-built after an accident which claimed the frame.

2) a short distance commuter; a Raleigh Rush Hour fixed gear, my latest acquisition for city riding.

3) a true road bike, currently set up for fast day cruises with the cycling club, but can be stripped down for light racing. After I had to replace the frame on my long distance commuter, this is now my oldest bicycle.

In the next year or so, I expect to be building up a touring bike which will play double as a heavy duty, low maintainance, winter commuter, complete with internal geared hub and front and rear racks. That's my current project; it is still in the planning stages.
