Second Bike?

[7rider]

My question for y'all is:

If you have a road bike plus one or more OTHER bike(s), what type of other bike do you find yourself using the most frequently?

(I'm trying to decide whether to buy a cyclocross or a single-speed)

Thanks,
Kate

I have a road bike - a stock Seven Axiom ti - for group rides, fitness rides, and generally anything longer than 40 miles. I have a flat bar road bike (Felt SR-81) for commuting, the occasional utilitarian trip, and fitness rides. Both see pretty much equal use but I prefer the Seven. I've been thinking of selling the Felt and getting a cyclocross bike myself, but I think it may be cheaper/easier to convert the Felt to a compact crank with drop bars and cyclocross-type brake levers on top. The frame is just too sweet to give up.
The dual suspension mountainbike is sitting pitifully in the utility room - probably on flat tires - and hasn't seen the woods in far too long.

I think in finding out what type of other bike you should get, I think you need to identify what you want to do with it.

p.s. Oh yeah...I have an old Schwinn cruiser too - yard sale special - that comes out once or twice a season for toodling around the 'hood.
