[BlastRadius]

[Siu Blue Wind]

That's quite a stable, those all yours?

Yes. I have more but these are the bikes I ride regularly with the exception of the oldschool Trek. (Too big) That was a gift from another BFer to cheer me up when I was being screened for cancer. He sent it to me in parts and demanded I build it up.

Heeeey. You posted just as many as I did.

[BlastRadius]

Oh I did, didn't I !?!? But I don't have more.... OK, just one more that's only half way built (the rain commuter fixie) and the kid's bikes don't count.

[SesameCrunch]

OK, here's a partial list of mine. I'm too embarassed to show all of them, lest you think I am obsessed about bikes or something...

The premier ride:


The backup ride:


The fun folder (16" wheels) modeled by my wife's niece:


The folding recumbent child carrier:


The fast folder:


The family transport:

Hey Blast, what the hell! I see you just sign your paychecks over to the local bike shop Of all of them I think that Pinnarello is the bomb! I remember saying awhile ago , nobody has a crappy bike anymore.
I'll put mine up, as soon as I can find a pict.

Hey sesame, show em all! You know we all have a bicycle problem here...

[BlastRadius]

I'm still cheap. Most I bought used from Craigslist and put together. The Pin and the MTB were the only new purchases. I need to get rid of one of the Bianchis. Just can't decide which.

[BlastRadius]

The family transport:

That's cool. Just need a trailer on that too.

[SesameCrunch]

Hey sesame, show em all! You know we all have a bicycle problem here...

OK. I'll get some pics and put them up.

[taxi777]

Here's mine, the things in the background are what I really spend my bucks on
Cathy's Klein
My Klein
My Trek

[uspspro]

I'll post mine when I get some good pics.

Right now I have:

My new build - 2007 Cannondale CAAD 8 with Campy Chorus (Centaur cranks, because Al looks nicer). I am just waiting on the wheelset - There will be a thread about this build when it's all done.

My Ex-all purpose and now commuter/rain bike - 2002 Cannondale CAAD 4 with Ultegra/105 10s/9s mix.

Oh and I built up a nice 2002 Bianchi Vigorelli (frame from Craigslist) for my GF.

Here's a not so good pic of my 96 or 97 Trek 420, and my Rans Stratus LE. Hiddenb ehind the Photocrazy letters, there's me riding in the Tour De Cure.

The family transport:

Is that one of the Bilenky Viewpoints or one of the older Counterpoints? We have a counterpoint Opus mark II up in Sonoma County. For a shot of my commute bike check the BLT on www.bgcycles.com (Shameless plug)

[sweetnsourbkr]

Cool bikes everyone! Especially the 'bents. Here are mine:

The commuter/tourer:



The Fat Lady:

[t4mv]

sweetnsour, is that a Thomson 25.0 on your 585? That's a pretty cool "look" with the CF and Brooks (or is it an Ideale? )

[Siu Blue Wind]

I must ask: What those yellow things are on the commuter. *strains eyes*

[t4mv]

Kinda looks like a foam (insulating) mattress pad all folded up, but, I suppose they could just as easily be DHL shipping envelopes..

[sweetnsourbkr]

t4mv: the seatpost is a Thomson Elite, black now, no longer silver. The stem also changed from the pic, it is now a no-name, which is pretty cool. Good catch on the Brooks. That is the centerpiece of the whole thing, imo.

Siu: It's a thermarest.

[Siu Blue Wind]

Ahh okay. For a minute there I thought you were delivering yellow pages or something.

[NeCrO632]

my old warhorse...'95 Kona Fire Mountain


my new roadie...'07 Trek 1500


my next acquisition will probably be a Kona FS mtb...I love my Kona! (Nice rides SBW...)

oh..just noticed something to drive the OCP folks will go nuts..my drivetrain is on the other side of the pix..

[SesameCrunch]

Is that one of the Bilenky Viewpoints or one of the older Counterpoints? We have a counterpoint Opus mark II up in Sonoma County. For a shot of my commute bike check the BLT on www.bgcycles.com (Shameless plug)

Good call! It's a Counterpoint. Fun tandem. Each rider has his/her own derailleur so we can pedal at difference cadences. Eliminates arguments.

Invacare XLT Pro during my first metric.
