How many Bikes do you have ?

Spokejunkie

Hi,

Have only been riding just over a year , got into it to add to my other activities and got completely hooked and ride most days and in between seeing the girlfriend and family as many weekends as I can. Have just got a Rockhopper expert 09 from my local Evans Store after deciding I wanted to upgrade from my Hardrock Pro 09 and have really noticed the difference in how these steeds handle and am keeping the Hardrock at the girlfriends as she has an older Raleigh MTB that she still uses( sometimes) so thinks it will encourage her to use hers more with us not having to get get a car rack etc . Not sure I will get another next year otherwise I will need a bigger house. Has anyone else seen this sport start to consume their lives and spare income ???

Just the one but end of the year i have two options, turn to the dark side and buy a roadie or update bits on my current anthem which in parts will give me a second hack bike as i have a coyote ht5 frame tucked away.

rocky mountain vertex 10. @ girlfriends gave it to her.
pace rc305 hardtail.
scott speedster s60 fb road bike ( commute hack)
santacruz heckler full susser.
about to purchase big bruiser dh bike unsure yet what it will be...

you can never have enough bikes, you will always find room for them.

nicklouse

not enough.

delcol

yeah but nic you have a garrage bigger than my house, :P so every bike from every manufacturer would'nt be enough. .

In theory i have two, i have my '96 Giant track ATX850, but ive given it to my dad who uses it (albeit in a very poor spec as i sold all the goodies years ago, silly me)

And i ride a carrera vulcan '08 disc spec, running rock shox dart II's, avid elixir-R brakes, and when they land a spanking new set of red and black panaracer fire FR's

Id love a santa cruz heckler though (the '90s one) as ill always be an old skool biker at heart!

Three that are rideable and an indeterminate number in various states of (dis)assembly in the shed/house/garage.

3, sort of.

2 at the mo, i can smell the third its so close. 1 is ridable now and one is awaiting the arival of the 3rd to swap wheels from 2 to 1 and 3 to 2 as 3 will have my nice wheels. Then pedals kinda go 2 to 3 and 3 to 1. Oh Oblox, this is hard to explain but i have 2 bikes as i write this

These ↓↓ Don't use the DMR too much. Used it today with a mate - swapped half way through the ride, didn't enjoy it too much, seemed like everything on the Orange was better, handling climbing, downhill, obviously!

Used to consume income, now it's work everything is better!

Three - Cove Handjob XC 2003/4 (cant remember which), Santa Cruz Heckler 2001 and On One Inbred (commuter hate hack). Would like a road bike but money space time - would probably get a versatile roadie and ditch the on one.
