3 1/2  :

         My sweet 08 commencal mini dh1,
         
         The fun 08 commencal absolut2,
         
         An old eddy bikes touring bike thing(its really just there so the bird can come along for a wee ride if i go for a blast along the cycle path)

        And the 1/2 is my mates old school Spesh rockhopper comp, (its from around 1998 and still going strong,even after he had raced it
        downhill back in the day,and frequently crashes it during every ride these days ) which lives in my shed cos after every ride its in dire
        need of "Bongs bike repair services" cos he always breaks it ,lol  Grin  might start charging him rent!! haha.


        I would normally have said that my mini dh was my fav,but i have been out on my absolut a lot lately and im totally loving it,such a fun   
        bike to ride,even on freeride tracks despite only having 80mm of rock hard travel,lol.  It just loves to go high on the dj's and i wanna
        learn how to style it up proper(not just the typical whips and table tops) ,so i can do the bike justice!!

- Commencal Meta 552 with some changes

- Motobecane roadbike with flat super narrow bars for super fast commuting in city and working

Almost 5 for me.

07 MiniDH 6.3 (I've changed everything except the frame)

On-One Inbred 456 - Bargain hardtail, rides sooo well and can take a real battering.

Cannondale Jekyll - although my wife rides this more than me now.

Ribble road bike for commuting

Almost built a hardtail MTB (a Dave Hinde M3 that I've had for years) to have more fun on the commute.

Just a lean 4...

XC bike (Meta 5.5 (2007))
Jump bike (Trailstar)
Trials Bike (Onza Zoot)
Road Bike (cheapish Carerra)

I reckon there's room for a freeride/DH bike though...  One day!

Two that I regularly use:
Commencal Meta 5.5 XT
Megamo Radical 20" wheeled trials bike

The other two I rarely use and could throw out:
Old Scott Kokomo hardtail which I occasionally use for commuting
A rubbish wethepeople BMX that is rusting and has no brakes

So that’s currently 4 bikes in the shed!

I recently sold my trusty Marin Rocky Ridge, I was sad to see it go but I had not ridden it since getting the Meta 5! Its nice to have a bit more room in the shed, I really should sort out a trip to the dump to get rid of the BMX and create more space!

Just the two for me.

1. Meta 5.5XT
2. Custom built Cannondale HT. (bought in 2000 and gradually replaced every part - including frame!)

I go through fits and starts as to which one I prefer to ride.  Just put new forks on the Meta and am loving it just now.  Moved the Floats to the HT and am also loving the slack angles of this after the 80mm Headshok and then 100mm Bombers. 

Would like a short travel full sus but tbh don't have enough time to do the 2 bikes I've got justice.
