If you could have any one — and only one — bike in the world, what would it be?

A Titanium Strada Bianca built up with Campy Record and some 35mm tires so I can take it on gravel, over grass, on the road etc.

Do you already have that coveted dream bike? If so, is it everything you hoped it would be? If not, are you working toward getting it? If you’re not working toward getting it, why not? It's a long term goal... a house and such are more important now. Maybe in a couple years (of course, my dream bike may change by then)

If you had to choose one — and only one — bike route to do every day for the rest of your life, what would it be, and why?
I'd say the route from wherever i live to work. that'd be good.

Do you ride both road and mountain bikes? If both, which do you prefer and why? If only one or the other, why are you so narrow-minded?

I've only ridden a proper mountain bike 1 time-- the Big Mick. Otherwise road road road (or hybrid with the kids)

Have you ever ridden a recumbent? If so, why? If not, describe the circumstances under which you would ride a recumbent.

if I had back or other medical problems that precluded me riding an upright then, yeah, I'd ride a recumbent.

Have you ever raced a triathlon?
Plan to. Note the swimming.

Suppose you were forced to either give up ice cream or bicycles for the rest of your life. Which would you give up, and why?
Ice cream. Dairy is causing all sorts of "down there" problems for me anyway.

What is my favorite thing about cycling?
exercise and fun.
