Colnago Master...took down some wall art for ride

Mild morning, no rain just had to do it. Glad I did!
Anybody else ride their "art" today?

Nice looking Colnago. I didn't get to ride today but all my bikes are meant to be ridden.

Thank you again for enlarging pics, you always come to the rescue. I will figure out how to do that eventually.

There's something magical about a red Colnago. Your ride would have been very enjoyable.

So true Gary!

This one looks just right to my eyes, that's for sure.

Maybe I'll ride my Colnago today if the weather cooperates.

Enjoy your ride gomango. I've cleaned-up my Master Piu ready for a ride but my left knee isn't co-operating today.

RayMar you've started something!

Just got back from church and lunch, my choices are a) watch insipid Dolphins team play or b) go for 2nd spin on Colnago before it goes up again. Guess what I'm doing??

I refuse to sit home on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and watch the Vikings.

Sure fire way to have your heart broken.

Our ride today was fantastic other than the wind.

Stopped at one of my favorite restaurants called Sea Salt.

Check out the menu!

BTW Rode the Colnago Elegant today.

That bicycle brings a smile to my face every time I take her out.

I would have selected the Sri Lankin fish curry from the menu. The ride home may have been a little uncomfortable but the smile would still be present if I was riding your Elegant though.

Hi Gary,

The food is uniformly delicious at Sea Salt!

Fortunately I only have four miles to go from the restaurant.

That means all menu items are available, including their feisty curry recipes.

Not art, but I did ride my Colnago today. Reading some of the other posts, maybe it was a Colnago Sunday.
Could be a trend, "Everybody who has a _________ ride it today."

Yep, sure did.
My longest ride since the Dr gave me the ok;
Slow 29 miles with a big smile all the way!
It was a good day to get some sun. This guy thought so too!

Good man!

Start slow, end slow.

That's my motto.

Just finished reading the "Magical Bike" thread. I haven't ridden many bikes but I have to say my 83 'Nago is the best ride I have ever had. Alway enjoy seeing pics of Colnago's in any shape.

Glad someone else was inspired to get their bike out and spin.
