Yea, but the list has changed and grown quite a bit in the last year.

I'm 31 hence the "young buck" and have more bikes than I need and less then I want. My general rule of thumb is to own about as many bikes as the years of your age. I'm not sure how many bikes I really have so I'll break it down into geographic areas. In California, home right now is Goleta/Santa Barbara, I have 10 singles and one tandem, plus another bike in SF. In Oregon I have at least 2 bikes, same with Washington. My parents house in Coeur d'Alene has at least 3 bikes, maybe more. . . I can't quite remember what I have in storage. I think I may have left one in Indiana too. I like to lend my bikes out since I always get better bikes returned and I turn people onto cycling at the same time.

I could only do this since my wife, Mitzi, loves old bikes too. Nothing beats coming home and seeing your spouse reading "The Sturmey Archer Story" as a break from her studies. For those of you who have SO's like mine count yourselves lucky, lucky, lucky. As usual for my posts this has now become too long, dyslexia has a tendency to make me verbose.
