I live in an area where I can easily do three totally different kinds of riding. I can ride fast on paved roads. I can do overnight and longer tours on paved roads. I can ride loops on mostly dirt/gravel roads and/or crushed limestone surfaced rail-trails. Therefore i have three different bikes each of which is more suitable for a certain type of riding.
A spare bike is nice to have in case the bike you want to use needs something done to it and either you don't feel like working on it right away or you need to wait to get part for it.
Cheers
