You have written that you wish to combine your photography with motorcycling. This leads me to think that you need a fairly compact and light-weight, yet very versatile combo. For this I think that your choice of the 20-40 Limited is ideal - it is a wonderful lens.
If you want a wider view only for static subjects (e.g. buildings or landscape scenes), you can take a few overlapping images with the 20-40, and join them to make a composite photo in computer software (e.g. Microsoft I.C.E. is free and excellent).
You might consider pairing the 20-40 with the 100 Macro - also relatively small and compact, and super-sharp whether used for macro or as a short telephoto. Plus for a bit more telephoto, the 100 is sharp enough to give you a bit more reach by cropping its images for screen view or smaller prints. For macro, one significant advantage of the 100 over the 35 - it is not necessary to get so close to your subject to achieve maximum magnification.
