    wow...
    There must be €20,000 of bikes there! The Cervelo S5 is awesome btw...
    Let me put it this way ...

    My bikes (in total) cost (quite a bit) less than half as much as my car cost

    My bikes (in total) travel further than my car

    Each of my bikes (hopefully) will last longer than my car.

    My bikes are easier to maintain than my car (in fact I can do pretty much all of it myself)

    My bikes (with a bit of luck) will add a few years to my life

    My bikes are therefore better value than my car

    QED

    (not tht I feel any need to justify spending so much on my bikes)

    You must be a sh1t driver!!!

    I'm trying to remember since I'm remote from my (most of my) bikes at the moment, anyway here goes:

    Raleigh Bomber, bought new around 1986(when it was that Hurrican Charley came to Ireland) - radical curve on the top tube. Rusty chrome steel rims.

    Raleigh Dyna Tech 800, bought new in 1989, Road Racer, 16speed Campagnolo Ergopower - an unbelieveable machine in terms of feel but I'm afraid Raleigh had well and truly lost their attention to detail at this stage - there is some cracking(!!!) in the aluminium lugs but the bike is still together and frame has not failed.

    Raleight M-Trax Reynolds Chromo Frameset, Set up as a type of tourer (by adding fenders and rear rack) (bought new in 1994 or so at rediculous cost (verus nowadays for bikes) of around 600 IRP)

    Mongoose Hilltopper, Boght second hand in the US in 2002 or so, vintage of about 1994 or so, Chrome Finish Tange Cro-Mo frame, MTB

    GT BMX, I can't remember the model name, bought new in 2005. Love that little bike cost 150 dollars in the US.

    KTM 3000 Road Racer, 20speed Shimano Ultegra, bought new in 2011 as bike to work bike. Good bike. Shimano shifting not near as friendly as Campagnolo in my humble opinion. The 1989 bike beats it on that and on other things.

    Specialized Roubaix, elite SL-2. SRAM apex running gear.

    Giant defy 3, 2009 (I think). Need to sell this to fund new wheels.

    Steel hybrid, bought as a commuter and got me into cycling a couple of years ago.

    Cube Agree SL for regular spins at the weekend.
    GT Aggressor XC3 for commuting.
    Steel-framed MBK from 1990 with 12-speed Shimano biopace (whatever that is). Was lying in a shed until last year, I'm going to refurbish it and put it back on the road.

    When I saw studiorat mention his Mercian (love a photo!) I had to give my Mercian some typeface!

    1939 Raliegh Roadster
    1949 Raleigh Roadster
    1977 Mercian Olympic
    1980 TI Raleigh
    1982 Bianchi Super Leggera (or maybe '84)
    2009 Giant TCX 2 (great for the child seat)

    Recently sold Sloughi Tourer
    Looking for another 80's project frame.

    Best wishes to all,

    Brendan

    My best friend used to have one of those MBK, I think his was a white frame. A lovely lightweight basic good quality simple bike.
    The biopace is good in my opinion, it's a very personal thing!;)
