I don't have that anymore with my recumbent, which is why I don't have uprights anymore.
I realize a lot of people can do both. For me, though, there's no reason to keep a bike I would almost never ride. My next purchase will be an offroad capable trike.
I ride my bent most of the time as well, but I just couldn't bring myself to parting with my old friends. I now have 1 bent and 12 standard bikes. I ride them all every so often.
My next bike will be a Go Plus Tricycle, 8-speed.
