I personally own 1, going on 2 in a week here...but if you take a look at my garage, I believe the last count was at 22? This includes about 3 frames. LOL. My dad collects/fixes up old bikes :] It's great to see peoples faces when they walk into the garage...

Well, a folding bike would put you up to four. Originally Posted by sundial

LOL! I can just see me on a pocket bike. I would look like a Shriner riding a mini scooter. Originally Posted by uforgot

A time trial bike would help. Let's see, I have 1 zippy road bike, 1 mountain bike, 1 touring bike. I guess I need the time trial bike and, hmmmm, how does one get up to 5? Wouldn't really use a folding bike. Probably wouldn't use a hybrid. I'm not sure I can get there from here. I've been drooling over the Trek and Jamis websites (a Madone or a Xenith Pro), but if I did it, I'd have to sell the 5200. I think I'd better drive hours and hours to get a professional fitting, and then wait a couple of years. Originally Posted by sundial

Picked up the bike yesterday! I need to go back to the bike shop to get some narrower bars and that saddle is like a brick, but other than that, just what I wanted in a commuter!
