How many bikes do you own?

5 road
1 fixed
1 ss
1 mtb
1 hybrid
1 unicycle if that counts

unicycle = ½ ?

ONE. i resent people that call their perfectly nice bikes 'beaters'.

who loved mental arithmetic, which is apparently frowned upon by real mathematicians.

Yep 'tis true, a lot of excellent mathematicians are rubbish at arithmetic.

3............ it IS the magic number

nope........ it's 42

Also have 2 bmx

"Can anyone beat 9?"

no one can ever, ever beat 9,

heres how, multiply 9 x any number, it reduces to 9,

watch,
9 x 9 =81, 8 +1 =9
9 x 723= 2943, 2+9 =11+4=15+3=18 1+8= 9

9 is the number of cosmic awesomeness man

Godwins!

soon i will have the alpha bike and the beta bike

Just the five(in order of preference):
'88(ish) Pinarello Montello SS (best bike I've ever ridden)
'09 LaPierre RCR-700 (flat bar racer, nice but no Pinarello)
'73 Schwinn Speedster (refurb for a friend that I still seem to have)
'87 Raleigh Rapide (v. old school 12 speed, bought new 23 years ago)
?? 'Skippy' Raleigh Ladies bike pulled from a skip (great pub bike)

9 is the number of cosmic awesomeness man

That's why I upgraded my ownership since my last post in this thread.

1 mountain Bike
1 fixed
1 grifter

1 fixie, 1 roady, 1 ss xc mtb, 1 jumpy/ hack mtb (not fully working), 1 old shitter in the rafters of my garage (mtbish) 1 shitty steel mtb (wifes old one) 1 halfrauds mtb (wifes).
Hopefully soon an 80s roady too.

Boardman Road Team Carbon Ltd Edition
Old Falcon Racer wich I found in my cousin's barn :-)
Even older racer I bought from my neighbour - bit crappy but it introduced me to the joy of road biking so I love it anyway :-)
1987 Marlboro Montreal racer I bought off ebay yesterday...to turn into a singlespeed.
Schwinn mountain bike that I never ride!

As a family of 5, we have

4x road
2x 531 conversions
2x time trial
1x cross
1x hardtail
3x crappy hybrid bits of junk
2x kids racing bikes
2x Isla bikes
2x first bikes with stabilisers

Probably excessive.

Willo, whos making the Ti frame for you?

I'm getting Sabbath to do it. It will be a bit of a cross between their September and Monday's Child, with geometry as per a Cyclefit CAD template that I had done. Double butted front triangle, single butted rear triangle.

ATM i have

Fixed Brakeless Ti Burls
Steel Lee Cooper Track Brakeless
Langster for Polo
BMC Geared for longer rides
Keirin Frame Steel Brakeless
Leader Alu general around london bike

Projects:

buy my keirin frame, alas i think the 57cm top tube maybe too short for your manly size

I feel a bit more normal after reading this thread. I sometimes feel that I have too many bikes

1 road
1 track
1 road fixed
1 TT bike currently fixed - shared with my brother
2 mtb - SS and a freeride
1 polo on the make

3 frames waiting to be sold/used.

These are just my bikes then there's my brother's and my mums

buy my keirin frame, alas i think the 57cm top tube maybe too short for your manly size

That might be spot on. Hmm.

NO! Get thee behind me Seban!

I have been indulging myself recently:

Cinelli Mash
Surly Long Haul Trucker
Santa Cruz Chameleon
Ellsworth Enlightenment

I also have a Colnago C50 pista frame that I have sold and brought twice?
