I have 4 bikes that have discreet uses and get used frequently:
full sus mtb
gravel bike (which gets used for both grav and road duties)
cargo bike
road bike (which is permanently attached to the turbo and only goes outside if the grav bike is out of action for some reason)
I also own a rigid mtb which gets occasional use for town runaround duties where it’s not appropriate to take the cargo bike (mostly when it will be locked out of sight for an extended period), and a vintage mtb which is owned for its sentimental value.
So 6, but could definitely be brought down to 5. Maybe 4 if I was less fussed about having a bike I can lock up around town without worrying about it. Maybe 3 if I could be bothered having a bike that went on and off the turbo.
