I sometimes can't help but think I might be better off with two bikes--a beater for errands and commuting and a nicer all-road machine. I'm at five bikes now, one of which is a cargo bike and I don't drive. I've never been a driver so I use that to justify the number of bikes. Still, I could probably do just fine with my LHT and my Hilsen but I've just sorta wound up at 5. And there's quite a bit of overlap. My LHT is my go to bike. it's just the most versatile and comfortable with it's 48cm Noodles and 40mm tires. But like you say "I love what I love." The only gear intensive "hobby" or activity I have is cycling and all the bikes get used. I do like having a single speed with upright bars for commuting in foul weather and simple runs to the store. I have a feeling I'll be back down to 4 bikes by the end of the year. We'll see.
