Okay, so these aren't "loaded" pictures yet 'cause I'm still waiting on the Bruce Gordon racks I ordered but here's my bike buildup so far. This is my first "real" bike & I plan on doing the Great Divide on it yet this year if I can finish fixing up my house, sell it & get out of town by September. Otherwise maybe I'll spend a few months in Baja, or something. Here's the rundown:

1987 Schwinn Cimarron MTB frame
Shimano LX crank, XT derailleurs (painted black)
36h Rhyno-Lite XL rims/XT hubs
Avid Shorty 4 brakes
On-One Mungo bars (okay but not too comfortable for long distance. Will try drop bars I have or maybe Albatross bars)
Dura-Ace bar-end shifters
Shimano road brake levers
Brooks Champion Flyer Saddle
Eggbeater Pedals (today was my first day with clipless pedals...only fell once!)
1.9" Schwalbe Marathon XR tires

Stay tuned for "loaded" pictures with Bruce Gordon racks & Jandd panniers. Cheers...
