Bikes: BF Pocket Crusoe; B Tikit; dust-gathering MTB

I bought a Bike Friday Pocket Crusoe. It's a do-it-(almost)-all bike. I got onto this site, and started acquiring gear left and right. Bought SPD shoes. I have now settled on this one bike for commuting, grocery getting and longer weekend rides/overnighters. It can adjust the ride position from slightly aggressive to more upright in a minute by tweaking the ahead stem position on the riser. But really I have it balanced for fast rides and commutes alike. I ride with my one-sided SPD/cage hybrid pedals and ride in my normal all-purpose trail shoes. I can keep my commute as short as 9.5 miles r/t, and if I do, I can just about get away with riding in my work clothes (casual on most days). Great thread. I hate changing gear and sport-specific gear. I likethat I am now using old my hiking/backpacking gear for my weekend ride gear. I am in a massive de-clutter mode in my life, so again, timely thread. Thanks!
