Have yet to see a flake of now here but I am ready...
Looks good to me. Are you running that 3 speed IGH/dyno hub in the back? That always struck my as a genius design, IGH + a dyno. And with only three speeds, I might be able to keep up with you, knowing the miles that you put in.

And I know that you've got some swanky bikes, even though your winter rides tend towards the utilitarian side. I dig the chainring on the Raleigh you posted above, and that CCM that you posted in SS/FG was absolutely gorgeous.

Curved top tubes are always sexy. I don't know why, they just are.
