    Just when I think I can't list any more reasons why I love this forum... yet another one pops up lol...

    YEAH... more bikes! lol...

    I own:

    4 bikes...

    * 2 that fit me
    (Orbea carbon road bike & Trek wsd hard-trail mtb)

    * 2 that don't fit me
    (1st road bike post driver's license & last road bike pre-driving that my parent's thought I'd "grow into" and never did lol)

    hmmm... I think according to the bike owning laws of Zen I'm due for more.

    I have three:

    an '87 steel Schwinn that I use for commuting/errands--it's got baskets and racks galore.

    my road bike

    my hardtail mountain bike

    I'll never say no to a fourth (or even fifth)...especially if it were a vintage mixte or a titanium touring bike.

    I have 2 for now. A Gary Fisher HKEK mountain bike and my new Trek 520 touring/commuter bike. I had 4 but, had to sell two in order to afford a new bike this year. I plan to get a custom frame built up in the future.

    I have three:

    Scott Contessa 30 Hardtail Mountain bike - currently on loan to a friend who wants to try dirt but not ready to buy.

    Gary Fisher Hifi Deluxe - full suspension sweetness of a mountain bike.

    Cannondale Synapse Carbon Roadie - I am bummed because she is a beauty and we have seen many miles but I got to admit I was steered wrong by a LBS that didn't care because they were going under in a matter of months. May be replacing the ill-fitting frame and keeping the components. My LBS wasn't sure they could do much to dial in the fit, the top tube is way too long.

    DH has four:
    A Cannondale roadie
    A Kona Jake commuter/cyclocross bike
    A Stumpjumper full suspension mountain bike
    A Diamondback hardtail that needs a lot of new parts. He may make it a single speed.

    Great to hear that women like to own a lot of bikes too!! Still not as excessive as the guys on bentrideronline (I am talking some own 10 bikes!)

    Now, the next loaded question, because this always gives me a giggle. Do you ask you significant other for permission to get another bike? This kills me that guys think they have to get their wives permission to get another bike!

    6.5 I'm afraid - running out of excuses - but I don't have a hub-geared bike yet . . .

    A road bike (Serotta)
    A commuting bike (Principia)
    A folding bike (Bike Friday)
    An expedition bike (Trek hardtail mtb)
    A full-suss mtb (Titus)
    A fixie (Dolan)
    1/2 a tandem (Trek)
