For me, it depends on my mood -- I'll go for a few weeks riding my QB most of the time, and then a few weeks riding my Atlantis most of the time. Every time I go from one to the other I realize how much I like both, though they're quite different bikes. Interestingly, I don't tend to pick the bike based on the nature of the ride -- the geared bike doesn't generally get preference just because the planned ride is hilly, for example (although what passes for hills in Delaware wouldn't cause most of you guys to break a sweat!). And both are set up to carry a load o' stuff if called for.

I was looking at A D's fantastic SimpleOne: http://www.flickr.com/photos/livepake/5133139965/ I think because it looked so beautiful, I wondered if it was his main bike, or one of many. That made me wonder who of us with QBs consider it our primary bike, and who uses it for a specialized purpose, or as a fun secondary bike. My Quickbeam is my main bike. I ride it the most, I lavish the most attention on it, and it's the one I consider "my bike!" I have two other bikes: a geared mtb, and another 2-speed road bike. My Quickbeam this morning: http://www.flickr.com/photos/philipwilliamson/5149030862/ So, Quickbeam owners, is your QB your "main bike?"
