If money and no other variable was an issue, what bike would you love to own or what spec would you love to put together? Also, where would you ultimately want to ride it?

This can be MTB, touring, road, folding, etc.

AM: Intense Tracer 2 pretty much as I have it just now.
Where: Scottish Highlands.

XC: Santacruz Blur XCc pretty much as I have it just now.
Where: All over europe.

DH: Santacruz V10 Carbon with custom Envy wheelset. Custom Mr Dirt Forks & CCDB with Kashima coating.
Where: French/Swiss Alps
 
Cervelo R5-CA with Di2 and Lightweight Obermayer Wheelset.

I'd have a P4 like touch has shown as well, but I doubt I'd use it.

Oh, and a Look 695 IPACK with Super Record and I Zipp 404s

And the SL version of my Scott CR1 with Zipp 404s and Sram Force.

Custom Bob Jackson frame with Sram Force and a set of wheels from Harry Rowland.

Apart from the P4 I'd like to take them all over La Marmotte (Col du Glandon, Col Du Telegraphe, Col du Galibier and L'Alpe d'Huez) Not next year, but maybe the year after.....

I own both (will do in a week anyways)... the only other bikes would be alternative choices :p

Maybe Id make a couple spec changes on the Tracer 2, like a BOS Deville Fork and Formula R1 brakes.. and that's it. The Makulu is as I want it

AM - Tracer 2
DH - Makulu BOS Build
 
I'd quite like a 531 steel frame road bike, fixed gear with dropped bars and classic narrow alloy 700C wheels. Basically the same as my current fixie but with the lighter frame and modern wheels and tyres off my 531 racer, which is too nice and original to convert. Don't need to spend loads for a nice ride :p

Let me guess; you'd finish it off with some nice brown leather bar tape and a Brooks B17 Aged saddle? :P

Personally, I'd like something along the lines of a Van Nicholas Yukon fitted with a Dura-Ace group set and Ksyrium SLs. I'd also like a Surly Pugsley just for larking about :)

It's my winter commuter, but it's the Mrs' summer bike, so I like to show it quite a lot of TLC in order to keep her happy.

Also, it looks great and that's what really matters, right?

Undoubtedly; I can assure you that I wasn't insulting you :)
