Without knowing where I'm riding, I have no idea which bike is "go to".
Hence my somewhat supercilious (and picturesque) replies.
OP wanted to see bikes - a worthy goal, on this Forum.

@Wildwood, a bit of a narrow definition in the OP perhaps. I mean, the go-to is more of a sliding scale, as you say.
I've been guilty of standing there with my gear on, indecisive about which bike to ride. Not a bad problem to have.

My “go-to” bike is the De Rosa Professional. I’ve (long ago) posted a glamour shot in the De Rosa thread. She’s sporting tubulars now and the bar tape needs replaced, but otherwise she looks about the same.

If there's gravel, dirt, or two track roads involved, it's this one, 1989 Rock Combo.
