Two K2 Proflex 5000's, one medium (technically the wife's) and one large. Like them both for certain types of rides.

One Cannondale CAAD4 road bike. I just love road riding. What can I say? If I had to choose, I'd go with mountain, but road riding will always hold a place in my heart.

Now I'm the proud (?) owner of a beater single speed. It really is in rough condition (couple of gouges in the chain stay go all the way through), and the frame is not really my size (24" top tube is kind of long), the wheels are generic cheapos (and the rear one is still missing a spoke!), and to top it all off, it has an Army sticker on it (I grew up in the Navy). But it should suit its intended purpose quite well, and it's actually decently lightweight. (Pics coming soon).

K2 5000 Med ("wife's") w/Avid V's, Mavic CrossLink wheels, Manitou X-vert, Risse Astro-5

Two bikes are nice if you can do it. I have one road, & three MTB's. It helps to make one a little diferent then the others. A good climber, a good all around bike or a great downhiller. If you have the means I would say dont hesitate get a new ride.
Happy Holidays.
