1984 Repco Nishiki Olympic 12 (my first road bike that sits on the trainer)
2008 Shogun Ninja (current roadbike)
2008 Kona Lisa HT (first serious MTB - now on slicks with rack and panniers/bag for shopping bike duties)
2009 Specialized Era Marathon (dual suspension MTB and most expensive bike I ever bought)
2009 Holstar Roadster (tandem so DD can join us on long rides and touring)
2010 Scott Speedster S20 FB (new flat bar roadie arrived this week and already done about 100km and had its first flat tyre!)
It sort of depends what we're doing at the time which one gets ridden most. I just love the Spesh and going bush but it gets the least use at the moment because it has been beastly wet. But every time I ride it and that SRAM X-0 just keeps on changing regardless of the mud I just love it and don't care how much it cost.
When I'm training for a tri it is nearly always the Ninja that gets all the riding and I do have a sneaking love for roadies that means that it is probably my favourite despite being a relatively modest bike in name terms.
But I can already see that Scottie is going to be the "new black" for me. Almost as quick as the roadie, nicer to ride to work than the Kona.... I can see a lot of miles mounting up on that puppy!
Mileage a week - really varies. Anything from nothing to a couple of hundred km when in training for something - or 500km if I'm on a tour (not often). Not enough km lately is all I know!
Goals...
Fully regain fitness after my fall off the roadbike back in October.
Climb Mt Coot-tha without stopping to pick my lungs up off the pavement.
Race a DRY MTB race (it always rains when I race).
A PB in the Noosa Triathlon for 40km.
Cycle Queensland Tour in September.
Metric century Brisbane to the Gold Coast in October.
