I've been racking my brain over this ever since the question was posed, and I've finally settled on the perfect (for me) answer: No, and thank god I don't have to. I only have four bikes and not much overlap: A Brompton for the mixed mode commute, Thee Hunqapillar for all-weather go-anywhere do-anything day-or-night, a Santa Cruz Superlight from 2002 for mountain biking, and the perennial "project bike" a 1995 Gary Fisher Hoo Koo e Koo that is notable only for it's sentimental value (the last time I only had one bike, this was it). What's more, to my thinking there a couple of holes to fill: there will always be room for an Atlantis, and I want a lightish, fastish, single speed along the lines of a Quickbeam or some such.
One bike? Never! Besides, being car-free I'm allowed all the bikes I want, right? A great thread; fascinating to see the breadth of perspectives on this.
