How many bikes do you own?

1 of mine is under the bed, the rest line the front wall.. fuck cleanliness.

3 track bikes, i get em on tic

Can I get a fuck yeah for kat and the ONLY tourer shout so far? My Dawes Galaxy would be the bike I grabbed if I could only save one. I love my fixes too but that gnarley old Dawes has taken me further, higher, steeper and more heavily loaded than any fixed could. Kiss kiss for the long wheel base.

1x Raleigh fixed, 1 old school bmx freestyler, my Electrabike Revil & my wife's Electrabike Hawaii. And daughter's trailer.

I toured on my GT mtb.. does that count? :P

3 track bikes, i get em on tic

Figuring out an retro Italian lightweight for Paris - Normandy

i have 7 bikes right now. commuter fixie, 2 track, i single speed, road fixie, road bike and an extra ss/fixie that is usually for friends.

1 beater/polo/ghetto-fixie-conversion, 1 Merckx Corsa Dura Ace road bike, 1 Gitane track bike, 1 Surly Long Haul touring bike

1 Fixed all-weather - Bob Jackson
1 Road - Serotta
1 BMX - 24" Haro Cruiser

1 Fixed Harry Hall which is the 'Nice One'
1 Fixed T.Pena (under construction) which will be the 'Do it all One'
And a Green Kenevans frame that has been payed for from Ebay but not collected.

I have n bike, with +1 in progress.

When completed I will still have n+1 bike, however the value of n will b different and a new ethos for +1 will be adopted.

Space isn't an issue as my house is a tardis.

+1

1 ss road - Bowery
1 ss road - Capo 5
1 hybrid - 6spd Edinburgh Co-op Courier (project to change to ss)

2 1/2 very soon to be 3 and then hopefully 4 by the end of the year

5 + 1 to rebuild with spares when i get round to it.
1 ss mtb/commutor
1 xc mtb
1 freeride mtb
1 road bike
1 BMX
1 DH mtb

soon to add 1 high racer recumbent to that aswell.

as for storage anywhere the missus wont tell me off for. so 2 hanging in the old out house. 2 in the shed next to the motorbike
1 in the back room

Two trackbikes
One racing
One touring
One MTB
A Long John (something like this - http://www.fahrradzukunft.de/fz-0603/0603-02/p1.jpg)
and a big 3-wheeled cargobike - mostly used for dumpstering.

Mostly I use my commute trackbike, and the 3-wheeler, and the touring-bike, in that order.

1 fixed, 1 road, 3/4 of a mountain bike. and, if I can convince my parents to keep it in their garden, hopefully a donkey.

where you people keep these impressive collections? this is a london based forum right?

In a garage with three big fucken locks on it and the car - which is worth plenty more than the bikes but I care way less about and so has to live outside - pulled up tight against the door.

The collection:
60s Gillott fixed conversion
Langster
Scott carbon/alu geared road bike
SS Dekerf MTB (bought off Scott on here)
Giant hardtail geared MTB (another one was nicked last week)
Beater geared road bike
Beater geared MTB
Sinclair A-bike folder
Unicycle

...so I make that 8 and a half.

In build:
Wet weather ss with frame from AndyP - ta!

Wanted:
Electra/Felt cruiser
Robin Mather tourer
Strida folder
Moulton folder
Pashley Guvnor
Recumbent of some description
HHSB

Geared bike is kept in the 'summer house' which is more of a shed. Folder is in there foldered up in the courner. Frame is sitting in the dinning room on the floor with bubble wrap around it. Wont fit in the shed at the moment and would get damaged so its staying in the house for as long as possible.

(jimalex - Fuck yeah for tourers! I got mine third-hand five years ago and i've only ever had two flats. things have worn out, but never broken. compare that to my other show pony bikes....hmmmm. i'm currently moving house, albeit slowly, with this beast of a bike.)

re:storage. for a while i had 4 bikes and 2 frames stacked on the wall and floor at the end of the bed and 2 in the yard of the flat below. bike origami! things get easier once you start thinking about your flat as a shed. it also helps if your partner feels the same way....

Two and a half:
1 track bike - lives in the house, was the Sunday Best but is being commuted on presently due to...
1 Raleigh fixed conversion - lives in the shed, was the commuter but has now got a royally fucked dropout due to me asking a policeman to undo my wheel nut. To be mended :(
1 Le Jeune stepthrough frame - lives in the garden since Matt (Baddesigner) found it in the trash and will eventually become shitty pub bike, unless it disintegrates before that.

I feel much better about my indulgences knowing that everyone else generally has at least 2 more bikes than me.

How many bikes do you own?

All of them.
