of 14
  • Me:

    Fast tarty road bike/hhsrb (S Works E5 Aerotec)
    Touring/adventure/commuting (Raleigh 853 MTB conversion)
    "srs" mtb (Saracen Kili Comp)
    Beater/shopper/ssmtb (Stumpjumper)

    Her:

    Faster tarty road bike (TCR Advanced SL)
    Tourer/commuter (Ridgeback Voyager)
    ssmtb (Raleigh M-TRAX)

    So not enough, basically. Would like a fixed again

  • 3.
    Newly aquired Equilibrium 631.
    Defy Disc 1
    Cross check (currently loaned to eldest).
    I'm more than happy with that many/few, more and I'd never ride, just be in the shed tinkering and smoking rollies and suppin tea. Plus, more and I'd need a bigger shed.

  • 1: Graham weigh track 90s (fixie)
    2: Balk track 90s (summer fixie)
    3: Baronia Kid front tandem 80s
    4: Thorn xtc 00s (26" light touring)
    5: Ciocc San Cristobal 70s (shiny)

    5.5: Cannondale f1000 wip 90s (MTB)

    Hrm perhaps I should get a brand new iron for a change ;)

  • Is it ever enough, @JusCos ?

  • @WimVDD. Indeed, 4 weeks ago I thought to myself 'yes that's enough, I don't need anymore bikes' then there was a message in my inbox from you. So yes you are to blame for breaking the promise to myself but I'm so glad you did!

  • Making someone else happy is -according to some great thinkers- the core of our existence so that made me exist a bit. ;)

  • Koga Miyata Full Pro Track
    Dolan Track Champion FXE
    Javelin Aero
    Hotta TT700
    Raleigh 531 Race
    Claud Butler 531
    Raleigh 501 Criterium
    Diavolo Columbus Cromor Road
    Cyril Guimard Vitus
    Fuquay Ritchey Logic Tig Road
    And the wheels are out of control too

  • NOX cross bike/rack commuter
    cannondale track fixed trainer/commuter
    ottadini brklss posing fixie
    merckx corsa extra roadie
    enigma Ti roadie
    merida MTB
    shorter hybridised basket bike
    sirocco lo-pro period TT

    that's more than I thought I had! Would like to replace the 29er MTB with something like a stanton slackline at some point in the next few years, but not feeling the need to reduce or add to the fleet atm.

  • 753 80s/90s Peugeot roadie: for a nice weekend / evening ride
    Fixed beater: very generous freecycle from @cliveo (thanks again chap!) - used by a mate of mine for a few months after he trashed his old ride crashing into a ditch (possibly after an ale or two) - now back with me and probably my most used bike after the commuter below
    Dialled Love/Hate drop-bar MTB: weekend child-carrying bike
    Gas pipe pub bike: fugly, mismatched all-the-things and shit brakes - has been left unlocked outside most places and still here!
    2 Raleigh Stowaway folders: 1 very bashed and modded commuting biek + 1 for spares / visitors / Mrs c00ps
    2 Bickerton folders: 'presents' from the in-laws - taking up too much space and they didn't want to throw them away - very, very occasionally dusted down when they come to visit - frames flex like spaghetti and the ride is, erm, an experience
    Knackered unknown brand BMX: for lolz (really gathering dust waiting for refurb or for me to realise I'm too old and fragile)

    So that would be 9...

    (+Mrs c00ps MTB, mini c00ps pedal bike and old balance bike)

    Cripes!
