This is true, but you are not a utilitarian.

One ride for the dirt.


One ride for freestyle.


Any others?

Been riding this for 35 yrs.  The only reason I'm on this site.  Didn't get wiped down after the last ride, so she's kinda dirty.





I own a Redline too, but it belonged to an old friend of mine and I still consider it his - even though I've had it since '95 or so.

I am mostly a collector but fully respect your views. That Race Inc is sick ass hell!

It's strange.  Back in my roadie days, I never had more than one bike at a time and would have thought anybody who did was strange (unless, as you say, the bikes were for different types of riding). 

For BMX, however, I have a primary race bike, a back-up, a new school flag ship, a bad weather bike, and a long-haul cruiser.  But, hey, they all get ridden on a regular basis.

I like to collect AND ride! Sometimes, one comes before the other - but that all depends on what the weather is doing that day! Ope

Always good to see a fellow rodaie back into BMX! Me too brother.......

Oh, don't let my title confuse you.  This is not to knock the collector but to highlight the soloists out there.

I got this post idea because i remembered seeing a few other members past post saying "This is the only bike i need.  Good for park and ramp".

Man, I totally respect where you're coming from.  You either have a commendable amount of discipline or you are po'!   Just kidding.  In answer to your question, though, NO.

I have three bikes, one is a friends from back in the day so I am stuck with it. I still have a Redline I bought to race last year, but ended up racing my S&M which I just sold last month. I built a brand new Diamondback for this year. I sold all my 80's bikes because I hated riding them. I do plan to build a new S&M this spring to ride street with. So yea I need more than one bike, but I'm not hoarding.
