I also agree that those particular three are pretty damn good choices. For those of other opinions, I give you this: (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZgvuA_4nhcY/Twx8dXryXUI/AAAAAAAAAuY/b5rxN8BTlrY/s1600/IMAG2185.jpg) Title: Re: The Perfect Number of Bikes is....

Post by: 1.21GW on May 28, 2015, 06:27:26 AM I like the N+1 theory, but when I think pragmatically it gets capped at 5:
1) street bike 2) track bike 3) touring bike 4) dirt bike 5) project bike I have 3 of the 5. If I didn't live in this damn expensive city where a 300 sq ft apartment rents for $10k/mo, I'd have all five. Title: Re: The Perfect Number of Bikes is....

If I didn't live in this damn expensive city where a 300 sq ft apartment rents for $10k/mo, I'd have all five. I like that breakdown, but I'd add a vintage bike to the list. It's fun to have a bike you can kickstart and just toddle along on backroads. Granted the project might be vintage but I assume that's more to wrench on than to ride. |
