What Bike(s) do you own?

[7rider]

I have to laugh... this is going to be like the "show us your pets thread"! Ask us about our pets or our bikes and we're in!

Yeah, but I think we've done this one before.
That's okay...lots of new folks....always interesting to see what folks are riding.

Me...
'07 custom Seven ID8
'05 Felt SR-81
'03 Klein Palomino
'99 stock Seven Axiom
'82 Schwinn cruiser (okay, I rarely ride that one)

Miles per week and rides per week are hugely variable. I hope to get 4K miles (~2600 km?) in for the year.
I do have on "goal" ride this year - a 5-6 day self-supported trip along the Blue Ridge Parkway from North Carolina into VA with about 5 others.

2001 Sampson Silverton
2005 Sampson Diablo - done up as a tri bike although it doesn't completely have tri geometry
2006 Jamis Dakar Pro mountain bike

Right now all of my riding is on the Silverton on the trainer. Hopefully I'll be able to get back on the road by the end of next month.

I ride a 2010 Cannondale Synapse Féminine 5..."Oberon" (I call her "Oby," for short)

I have been riding 2-3 days/week on the trainer since I got her in November...with a handful of outdoor rides when weather has been decent. I've averaged 40-50 miles most weeks in the last month or two.

I'm hoping to ride 3-4 days/week now that weather is improving and am training for a duathlon in late April, then a few century rides in Summer and Fall. Not really sure on mileage goal...maybe 1500-2k miles. I'm also running regularly and hoping to hit 1200 or so miles with that, so I'm taking it easy with the cycling for this first year until I decide what I want my emphasis to be. Right now running is my primary sport.

when it's windy and cold, and part of me would rather stay inside, i remind myself i've never regretted going for a ride, and off i go.

+1!!

Bikes:
Bianchi L'Una (the climbing bike)
Bianchi Eros (the training bike)
Giant Trinity Alliance (the time trial bike)

All my bikes have Campagnolo Record 10sp, and all use Campy wheels, either tubulars or clinchers.

And, there's another box of campy Record sitting in the house, waiting for a Racemaster since Interbike 2009...
Now, if BMC would please kindly decide to ship some of those bikes to the USA...

Oh well, back on topic.
Weekly Mileage: around the 150's in the Winter. Right now between the 250's and 290's depending on weather. Hope to go back to normal in the Summer (350's or so) if my knee agrees with the plan

Goals for 2010:
1- complete this slow recovery and get back to pre-injury speed.
2- attend some new coaching clinics

Yes this thread is fun but... it should have pictures!

Trek 820, Diamondback Centurion designed Venture, Fuji Silhouette. The Fuji is the newest and what I currently ride. I'm just getting started again for the season. Plan to ride 25-30 miles 3-4 times a week with at least one longer ride a week. My goals for this year are to drop the 30 pounds I've gained and to do a full century by the end of the year.

This is not a sexy list and sounds absent-minded. Am also abit embarrassed to list my bikes compared to everyone else's higher end bikes and knowing exact model yr. The list doesn't quite reflect my true love for bikes and many years of cycling. I'm just..um..abit cheap.

*Marin County Bodega Ridge hybrid (I bought it in 2006, but not sure about model year.)
*Giant Cypress (bought in 2001 but not sure about model year)
*nameless mountain bike bought 3rd hand

will be getting #4- a folding bike.

Ok, I do care about cycling often, even given such a motley fleet.
On bike #1, I must have done over 7,000 kms. last yr., 'cause last spring & summer I was averaging at least 1,000 kms. each month with shortest ride 42 kms. almost daily, longer rides on weekends 50+ kms. each day. I ride yr.-round, with less frequency & distance in winter.

So this yr. I'm not sure if I will meet last year. Better get my butt movin'. But we are going on our own bike tour in Europe which is why folding bike is needed for shunting onto trains several times so we can see more in shorter time.

2004 Trek Fuel Full Suspension Mntn Bike
2005 Giant TCR 2 Road Bike
2008 Giant Suede

Goals: Mountain Biking, 20 to 45 miles of single track a week (after spring thaw). Work on my technical skills, speed, climbing abilities, etc. I have 2 races: Ore 2 Shore and Iceman. My goal is to finish in 2:30 at Iceman.

Road riding:
Hit one fast group ride a week. Maybe next year I'll do more road riding, but this year its all about the trails.

Giant Suede:
The family bike. I'm hoping to do lots of family bike rides down the bike path, to the store, playground, around the 'hood, etc. I'm really looking forward to this. I'll have the tag-a-long bike behind me, and the burley trailer behind that with DD and DS.

Bikes hanging in the bike cave...

1987 Bridgestone touring bike (steel) - used for errands and rides with Mr. Tater.
2004 Gary Fisher Tassajara - dirt, mud and snow bike.
2007 Giant TCR c w (carbon) - main ride, but soon to be replaced.
2009 Masi Speciale Fixed (steel) - I run this as a single speed.

Just started the process for getting a custom steel Kelson.

Weekly mileage...around 210 miles a week right now. That will go up with warmer weather.

Goals? A couple local charity rides; one metric, one imperial century. Then the fall Yellowstone bike tour.

hey limewaver and tater... I see you both have the TCR. That's the bike I wanted back in 2006 when I bought my OCR. I always was more 'fond' of the TCR color back then, ... but even so, I settled and got the OCR. Everytime I'd see the TCR out on the road, I'd growl at myself for not waiting a month or two to come up with the extra $$$ to get the bike I really wanted.

Given that!!, I am now at a crossroad between buying a new Specialized Tarmac and a Wilier Cento Uno. The Uno is the one I really want!!, more $$$ and I have to wait a bit to get it... but I'm waiting. Not making the same mistake I did before

Love those Giant bikes though... my OCR carbon has been a great bike... and will make a great 2nd hand bike when the Wilier comes and bumps her

Redrhodie - love your Merckx collection

My bikes:

* 2002 Colnago Ovalmaster (The Fred Rodriguez US Nat'l Champ paint scheme - flashy!) This has super easy gearing and is generally set up for brevets, though I have stripped it down to be my everyday bike since it's my only bike right now.
* 2004 Eddy Merckx TEam SC - stolen a week and a half ago but still in my heart. This bike and I did a 600k together and most of my double centuries
* Giant something or other MTB (I don't MTB a lot)
* Meridian tandem (either DH or I ride with DD. They did a century a couple years ago and she and I may do one this year.)
* Coming soon: 2010 Pegoretti Love 3 w/ Record 11

The Merckx probably had 20 - 25,000 miles on it when it was stolen. I ride 5000 miles in a good year (assuming no strange injuries or illnesses requiring hospitalization. )

Goal for this year is just to have fun and see my Death Ride team succeed at their event. I'm head coach for TNT's death ride team here in Nor Cal, and it'll be my 6th DR I think. This fall I may do a double century with a friend who wants someone to ride with (and she and I are perfectly matched). We'll see.

I'd like to do more doubles and brevets and such (and one day I will do the 508 either solo or with one teammate), but not this year. DR coaching takes up enough of my time and I have a teenage daughter who's not going to be around for that much longer - that sounds grim; I just mean she'll be off to college in 4 years.

I have one bike: 2009 Giant Avail 3. My per-week mileage is ridiculously low, because I didn't have the time to ride when I had my bike up here, and I took my bike home in December. When I am home and can ride, I get up to ~25 miles per ride on the bike trail, 10 if I'm doing neighborhood riding ('cuz it gets boring).
For 2010, I want to:
1) Increase my distance and frequency of rides. If I can't ride, get in shape for riding.
2) New wheels.
3) Metric century. On my own, if not some event.
4)Get better at climbing.

Only one bike - Trek Madone 5.2 WSD
My goals are to get stronger in the hills and to ride well when I visit North Georgia for Memorial Day. I usually ride 4 days a week and average between 150-180 miles most weeks. I don't like to set mileage goals since I can become a little obsessive - riding when I should rest or in questionable weather.

[XMcShiftersonX]

'09 Cannondale Quick 4 - Hybrid
'10 Felt ZW100 - 1st road bike (craigslist)
'10 Orbea Diva

Main bike until today has been the Felt. I ride about 70-100 miles a week (in better weather at least!). I've only been riding 6 months and am lovin' it!!

Glad to see someone else with an Orbea! Aren't they great???

Road:
2007 Specialized Ruby (bought in 2006)
1996 Lemond Tourmalet

Ruby gets used the most.
Tourmalet has mountain gearing. I put 28c Vittoria Ranndonneur tires on it and a bike rack. I use the Tourmelet for winter and early spring riding, times when I'm convalescing, distance rides where I know I'll encounter dirt/gravel roads, errands with panniers (although it has a pretty short wheelbase I can carry 15 lbs each pannier). I use it as a spare bike for visiting friends with similar build to go riding with.

I've been cycling for 30 years. I don't count child or teenage years but start the tally from age 20 when I used bikes for transportation and recreation. I used a Schwinn Continental from about 1980 to 1996. Not on the list since I gave it away.

Mountain:
2010 Specialized Myka HT (bought in 2009)
1989 Trek 930 Single Track rigid suspension

I rode the '89 Trek with the rigid suspension for 20 years as mt and on the road, until my aging limbs couldn't take it any more and last year got the Specialized Myka with front supsension.
