Foo - It's St Patty's day, show us your green bikes...

I love green bikes... which one should I ride today ?

Perhaps I should ride them all.

I don't have a pic of my bike handy, but here's what I have ('07 Bianchi Volpe):

My wife's Specialized fitness bike is green. I have no pics of it though.

Just bought one of these frames - it's dirty green in daylight, honest.

Raleigh Superbe! I have one of these.

jsharr and Mark..

Does this look like the "I'd buy you a green bike, but not a real green bike, that's cruel" thread ?

No.

Away with you then... and don't come back until you have real green bikes.

:D <<< this is green

Raleigh Superbe! I have one of these.

And my daughter named this bike "Patty" some years ago.

Sah! Yassuh! snaps feet together and marches smartly off to stroke new niner frame in private :D

And before you go stroking that niner can you resize that image ?

Puhleese ?

That niner actually has a nice green sticker on it.

:D

I have a green kit and a green helmet but no green bike :(

And a decent Irish name too.

But we need pics.

I bet your name is John Francis too.

:D

I found a chia bike.

I'll see about pics after I get home, but I have 2 green bikes.

1) 1986 Schwinn Voyageur (I believe it is listed as British Pine or something like that) with modern 105 components.

2) Not yet assembled (bought used) Windsor Touring that will be my commuter in dark green.

I have a green bike as well, but pictures are at home, as is the bike. (Didn't think to ride it today.)

I bet your name is John Francis too.

:D

The second as a matter of fact ;)

Kit's and helmets can be seen here: http://roguesracing.com/. We actually get a lot of compliments on them but they don't do so well in the dirt :(

Protestant bikes represent!

Now that's funny - can we have a march too please?

The only green bike I have is in my sig... (which will return to red tommorrow!) :o

This is MY green bike. Looking a bit 'freddy' at the moment with the bag and mudguard. Usually its much nicer.

Since this photo was taken, the bars have been changed to flat bullhorns, and the headset spacers have been removed.

my bike is green, it uses no gas

Not only green, but white (well, silver and white) and orange too! :D

Chain slack, man!

(but gorgeous bike nonetheless...)

<offtopic>Hey, X -- where did you get that mount for your flask? I've seen one before, but it was a custom job. Did you do that yourself?</offtopic>

(but gorgeous bike nonetheless...)

That is such a gorgeous bike... and I don't see any problem with the chain tension.

Hmm... could just be the angle, but for a fixie it looks a bit slack to my eyes.

It's a bit slacker than it's been in the past, but it's tighter than it looks. There's very little play in the cranks, and it's quieter this way.


<offtopic>Hey, X -- where did you get that mount for your flask? I've seen one before, but it was a custom job. Did you do that yourself?</offtopic>I bought it from Joseph Ahearne (http://www.ahearnecycles.com/) at the NAHBS (http://www.handmadebicycleshow.com/2008/) this year.

Really, I think x136 and slack are synonymous.

Oooh! Thanks! :)

You have a point.

I like how you waited to agree with me on the slack issue until after you got the source of the flask mount. classy.:D

Really, I think x136 and slack are synonymous.[I'll get around to replacing this placeholder text with a snarky comeback at some point. Maybe. Meh.]..

[If it helps at all, I'm having difficulty with a witty reply to jsharr, too... Clearly, it's time for bed]

(why are we talking grayed out and parenthetically now?)
