I've only got the one bike and it's a road bike, but it's like thirty years old so I don't think it's quite so serious in it's old age, not that it ever was to begin with. The other day at work there was a new addition to the fence (normally it's just me and a couple of dept. store mountain bikes), I think it was a Specialized but I don't recall anymore, but it was carbon, lot of fancy Shimano components, those weird handlebar extensions where you rest your arms right in the middle of the bars and hold onto grips that jut out forwards, clipless pedals, some ritzy-looking panniers with their own raincovers. Suddenly I've gone from lording my "made in France" bike over everyone else to just another schlub with one of those ancient "metal" bikes.
