You should re-weave the skirtguard on that green one, so your lady friends can ride with you without 'dressing down.' Muito encantador!

Wow, those are some serious saddle springs on the last one. Must be like riding on air. Nice!

Great saddles! I am digging the second Ya Ya! Is the rear rack have a dual clamp on it? I have never seen Portugal bikes. Does anyone there build drop bar road bikes?

Three lovely and original bikes Carlos. I can just imagine a lovely ride through a park or along bike path winding around a seaside village.

Very nice! One suggestion - there was one that appeared to have neither grips nor tape, and the handlebar ends were open. Put some plugs in, or get grips on them before those handlebar ends do a cookie-cutter job on you.

It looks like you've 'cornered the chopper market' in your location. - Chopper Man - They must be fun to ride around your town on one of those.
