I ride a Felt F1x (cyclocross) that has road tires. Kind of a jack-of-all-trades bike.

OK Chipcom, all is forgiven. I'm no racer either, not by a long shot. Comfort is king..

Ok, you shamed me into finding whatever pictures I could. However I feel compelled to note that the car in my avatar does not yet have a cage but it might in the future.:D
My road bike, the queen of the garage but also my highest mileage:

My commuter, currently the dirtiest and newest:
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/drsdrs/Bike-Portland.jpg
My tandem, the wife and I don't get out to often but she's getting more comfortable on it and it really is a blast down hills, might even do some touring eventually:
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/drsdrs/BikeTandem.jpg
And the rest, from left to right, the Homegrown, my wife's GF Kaitai, LeTour, and my Paragon, below are the girls' Pacifics (Yes Pacifics, they'll out grow them before they wear out and one of them is actually quite a nice bike.) and the boy's GF Marlin:

Somehow, the folks at Trek have managed to secure a sizeable chunk of my income over the years. I don't have any particular preference for the company but I have a good relationship with the LBS and they (Trek/Gary Fisher) have always seemed to have the bike I was looking for at the time. Hopefully my next bike purchase will be a serious road bike to replace (or supplement) the 2300. It probably won't be Trek just because I will be looking for something very special. Anyway that a few years off most likely. This year alone I purchased the Paragon, the Cannondale, and the Portland, and my bank account hasn't quite recovered. Cheers!

I'm pretty sure I've seen that 2300 before, maybe it was a view from the back leaving Hampshire and then watching it pull off into the distance and out of my sight..;) Sure is a hot looking bike tho. I like the whole armada. Thanks for the pics, sorry about having to call you out like that...

HAHAHA! +1 - It took me almost 70 miles of riding before I realized it was a 7spd. I thought it was an 8, but it took forever to get close enough to count...;)
