Well, all 8 of my bikes have triples. Steep hills, mediocre fitness, and a preference for climbing at a relatively high cadence conspire together to make it the sensible chice for me. I can almost get the range I want with a double, but I'd have to live with big jumps on the cassette, which I don't prefer.
I should repost my bike because I have since put on SS King Cages and black handlebar tape, and I think those are an aesthetic improvement over the previous items.
For long distance, I ride recumbents. I could post one of those here but I'm sure I'd recieve a bunch of "nots", which I'd be ok with, but there wouldn't be much point. Entertainment value for some, perhaps.
