How many bikes do you have?

I've got 2. A hybrid and a hybrid...well the second hybrid leans more
toward a road bike. I think I could fit another one into my apartment. I'd
like to own a real road bike, keep my better roadlike hybrid and trade in my
cheap hybrid for a mtn. bike.

Its always nice to have 1 - but is 2 or 3 better?

4. A road bike, a hybrid, a mountain bike and a hybrid for my wife. I ride
every one of them every week.

I currently have one too many, I think, at three.

Logically, four bikes are the absolute minimum.

Four directions, four seasons, four elements.

Road - This can be a touring, audax or racing bike.
Street - For utility or commuter cycling.
Dirt - BMX, downhill, trails, XC etc.
Track - This can be a track bike if you live near a velodrome or just
a wild card bike that might be your chopper, penny farthing replica,
recumbent or other whacked out bike all bike whackos must have.

I've eleven and now a unicycle too.

1 road bike, 1 touring bike, 1 mountain bike, 1 ATB knockaround, and 1
old ten-speed. My 13-year old has 1 road bike, 1 touring bike, 1
mountain bike, 1 ATB knockaround, 1 24" which she outgrew but keeps for
friends who sleepoveer but don't have bikes, and 1 26" ATB with a 13"
frame which she outgrew but keeps for the same reasons.

Your wife doesn't mind your riding her bike each week?

The more the merrier. I have a recumbent, a tourer, a mountain bike
and a triplet - and I want a road bike and a recumbent trike as well

The correct number of bikes to own is N +1, where N is equal to the
current number of bikes that you own.
