Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Just right, and I don't like yellow on bikes in general.

Classy.

It's similar to my Colnago, but I have a perforated Regal saddle, and it's a green frameset.

not a great photo due to the shadows, and lever placement(too high on the bars). Not "Hot", but a very nice ride.

I'm trying to keep criticism constructive.

Your Colnago sounds like my Casati, too, except my bike is white and it's the saddle that's green.

OK, modern.

To celebrate my bud's citizenship.



OK, a 1986 model, but the team that rode these was HOT.


Comfort = speed.



I can't lie; I built it because it had orange on it.



UCI min bike.



If you don't think steel is still real, try this 16.34 lb bike, built completely of used parts. Yes, I paid to have the pics done.



I just had to have one when I saw it.



I tri'd. I failed, but it looked good.

I would post a photo, but the tape was "slash" yellow/black, and the cables were too long.

I've since put the bike into a crate/time capsule. Too many bikes, and too little room.

Hot. Even with the bag. It's all bike.
J and D sells a bag that would be perfect on that.

I like the yellow Centurion and the '85 Cinelli. The Fuji is not hot, but it does warm my heart a little.
