Just wanted to point out that a "roadie" is a type of cyclist; a "road bike" is a type of bike.

I've only ridden it twice. I managed to hurt myself in a non bike related way. So I haven't ridden at all in a week.
But in limited time I've really enjoyed the Crossrip. It's got a gravel set up and is a really nice ride on pavement and gravel.
It's not the Trek Checkpoint I really wanted, but I also bough it for a 1/4 the price of a new Checkpoint so easy decision there.

Seven. The number of bikes you want to own is seven. Unless you don't want to include tandem bikes. In that case, the number is Five. Hybrid or "Adventure", Road, Folding, Hardtail (or rigid) mtb, and full suspension mtb.
Don't tell me you don't need an xxxxxx bike. Keep riding long enough and you'll need those I mentioned, and maybe more. Don't doubt me.
