Jeesus! Everyone's bikes are so much more awesome than mine. Still, here's a boring story.

My '80 Motobecane Mirage was sold to me by the first owner. I love this bike, and ride it the most of all three of the bikes I own.
My '81 Schwinn World Sport was sold to me as a frame and fork and I ride it almost as much as the Motobecane. It is a fixed gear conversion, though (someone decided to remove ALL braze-ons)
My '84 Schwinn Le Tour was sold to me by the kid who'd paid to have the frame and fork and drop bars powdercoated black. I'm glad he left the frame alone and didn't file off anything, because I have a feeling that I'm not going to want to ride this frame fixed forever.
