I ride three

The newest and currently most ridden is http://www.dirtworks.com.au/site/images/zoom/BRCCHB/Wild_Surly.jpg

An Avanti HT which I ride to work on the odd occasion and lone out to friends. It was also supposed to be sold to finance the
surly.

A Specialized Epic

Plus a unicycle I can't ride, a circa 1992 Malvern Star Mt Bike in the garage and numerous other bikes under my parents house.

One old school geared HT. One new-ish FS DH bike that got to see its first
action of the season last weekend!

I have a few.

An old JC Higgins (the company that later became JC Penny) girls cruiser
from the 1950's maybe (?) it's old and currently is in need of some TLC

A newer (1990's) no-name Schwinn-knockoff beach cruiser I built into my
current townie. It has full fenders, a coaster brake, the baby trailer
hitch, and serves me very well for getting around town in all conditions.
This one see the most frequent use of the bunch.

A 2003 Specialized S-Works FSR (Epic)

A Surly 1x1 I bought last summer that is probably ridden the most of my
non-townie bikes.

An early 90's Trek 2100 road bike for when the trails aren't ready yet
http://mattb.net/images/misc/Trek2100_web.jpg

...and one that isn't mine, but is so cool I have to show it (again). This is
an old Radio Flier and my 13-Month-old just loves it. It was a hand-me-down
from some friends.

Man, you've train him to put that tongue away when he gets to the rough stuff.
My 18-yr old sticks out his tongue when he's concentrating, and it ain't pretty
when he does it on singletrack....

We'll get the basics covered and work on that later.

I'm surprised you didn't comment on the SS he's riding there. No gears, or
even a chain or cranks. It doesn't get much simpler than that!

Mid-90's Giant Kronos road bike - rain/night bike
2003 Giant XTC2 - trials/XC trails
2003 Giant AC1 - big drops/going up and down stairs

Next up - Specialized BMX... then I'll really have it covered.

Sometimes... I don't shift... and it's like a single-speed!!!!!!!!!!

Let's see...
I have one Sycip (used to have two), a Kona (full suspension), a Trek (a
Y bike), a Croll Cyclocross, and a Pinarello road bike. Recent
deductions from my garage were a big, heavy DS bike and a track bike.
