Every bike you ever owned
 

If you already answered the "What's in your stable?" thread and still have time to kill, can you remember every bike you have ever had? Not counting childhood bikes just for getting to my friend's house down the street:

1988 Fuji Ace road bike, black/gold, steel with Suntour Blaze
1989 Centurion Ironman Master road bike, white/gray marble, steel with Shimano 600/Ultegra - hand-me-down when my dad built himself an Eddy Merckx Corsa Extra
1992 Trek 930 mountain bike, forest green, steel with Shimano Deore DX/LX
???? Gitane track bike, black, steel with mixed components - frame got Yakima'ed coming home from practice one night
1976 Schwinn Paramount track bike, champagne, lugged steel built up with Suntour Superbe Pro
1993 Trek 5500 road bike, violet/white, carbon fiber built up with Shimano Ultegra
1993 Cannondale track bike, light blue, aluminum with Suntour Superbe Pro
1993 Balance XR-450 mountain bike, dark purple, steel take-off frame built up with Shimano XT/XTR, Manitou 4 fork, and various anodized turquoise bits
1995 GT Edge road bike, polished, aluminum built up with Shimano Ultegra and various anodized blue bits
1996 Aplinestars RSA 940 downhill bike, polished, aluminum built up with Grip Shift and AC components

2006 Raleigh Pursuit tandem road bike, burgundy/black, aluminum with Shimano 105/LX
2018 Giant Defy Advanced 2 road bike, black/neon orange, carbon fiber with Shimano 105

I'm sure many of you will have a much longer list to remember.

Yours is definitely bigger than mine. ;)

Let’s see

1971 Schwinn Continental
1973 Schwinn Sports Tourer
-and everything listed to the left

edit: deleted. TMI

i cant really think of 4 road frames back, and two fixed. because all of those had interesting lives, or i still have the group set

Can't tell you the exact years.

77-79 (?) - KIA 10 Speed - Jr. HS - Brown

2008 - Trek Alpha 3700 - White/Red - Still have
1997 - GT STS DH - Black - Still have
1980(?) - Raleigh Grand Prix - Blue - Still have

1964? Schwinn Varsity....The QR's were big thumbscrew type. Bought used for $20.00. Sold in 1971 for $50.00
1972 Raleigh Grand Prix. Plastic Simplex derailleurs.....
1989 Schwinn Le Tour
1990 Cannondale R600 . 7 speed 105. Immediately taco'd the rear wheel and had a wheel built with a Mavic tandem rim. Converted to 105 STI.....

I still have the three below:
.
1992 Serotta Colorado II. 8 speed Dura Ace STI. Custom built including two sets of wheels with Mavic rims and butted spokes. Still have the bike and rides and looks brand new. Ain't a scratch on it....
2021 Zinn Clydesdale XXL Team. 11 speed Ultegra DI2. Also two set of wheels. Designed for big / tall...wheels will do 450lbs. 200mm cranks. Bike weighs 24 lbs......
2022 Specialized Creo. Let the LBS have the stock wheels and built wheels similar to the Clydesdale. DT Hybrid 36h / Velocity Aileron....Road boost spacing....

I can list every bike and trike I have owned, including those from my childhood. Maybe I will if I get enough time to kill.

.
...I don't really feel like I own them. They're mostly older steel frames, and now that I've restored them, they should outlive me. I'm more like a caretaker.

The tough ones to remember are the various hand-me-downs we had as kids. We lived near this much-larger family that had about eight kids, all of them older. We got ALL their old bikes, clothes, toys, shoes, etc...

Besides the four in the stable thread, there would be, working backwards:

Yokota Grizzly mountain bike, maybe 1990

Hadn't thought about it really.
Do I count the 'zero bikes'?

just counted 30 in the garage and small storage. 2 belong to my son, 2 exclusively the wife's. Only 4 are not road worthy. There have been ~15 that got moved on to other owners (5 in one sale).

Then there are 4 zero bikes - sister, brother, daughter & friend houses - at homes I visit where I may need a bike that fits.
Riding is more fun than walking.
Roll on.
Clear your handlebars and your mind will follow.

Tough one -- if you look at my "current stable" list, its apparent i dont throw much out -- but i used to race track at a fairly competitive level and would go through bikes for that fairly rapidly - however, most of my road bikes i still have

But i'll try to

Childhood - not many bikes as i discovered motocross at age 10 and was done with bicycles for a while

Sears Stingray style bike
Team Murray BMX bike
Another department store BMX bike that was a Redline copy

1sr "adult bikes" - i sold the originals long ago, but have replacements in the same paint scheme in the shop now
Bridgestone MB-6
Marin Road Project


Then - in no particular order

Paramount Series 70 mountain bike - 1994
Paramount series 50 mtb
GT GTB track bike - 1999
Corima Cougar track bike - 1999
Bridgestone/Anchor track bike - 2002
Giant TCR Team road bike - 2002
3 Rensho funny bike (track)
Bianchi Pista
Miyata road fixie
Cannondale Synapse carbon
Trek 5900 Dura Ace
Pinarello Opera Dura Ace
Specialized S-Works Tarmac
Santa Cruz Superlight (i had a couple of these over the years - still have one as a buddy bike )
Santa Cruz Nomad
Original Cannondale Criterium
Cannondale Criterium 3.0
DeRosa SLX (probably should not have sold this one )


Then a passel of C&Vbikes i purchased thinking i would harvest the groups for other projects and just never really got to it -

Bunch of Cannondales
R900, R800, R600, older SR series
R300? - whichever one had RSX components

Centurion Ironmans, -- 2 MAsters, and 2 Experts
Diamondback MAster TG - basically the 1990 Ironman
His and Hers Diamondback Fleetstreak mountain bikes
Raleigh 531 Technium and Univega Modo Vincere --- parted out these and gave the nice framesets to BF members
Coppi road bike,



Too many bikes --- i'd like to pare down the current stable to just a handful, but i've attempted to have a couple of "fire sales" over the years and gotten limited response, so i may be stuck with some of them
