Bikes: 1978 Trek TX700; 1978/79 Trek 736; 1984 Specialized Stumpjumper Sport; 1984 Schwinn Voyageur SP; 1985 Trek 620; 1985 Trek 720; 1986 Trek 400 Elance; 1987 Schwinn High Sierra; 1990 Miyata 1000LT

As far as my first five.

A blue bike- single speed kid's thing with big swoofy bars and a banana seat. I probably blew it up with rocket engines and lighter fluid.

A blue Ross 10 speed. I'd wanted a 10 speed with "rams horns" bars (drops). And my dad got me this curved tubed, super heavy Ross. I was horrified by it. I think my parents tossed it when they moved.

1986 Schwinn High Sierra- got it right before I got out of the Army- still have it.

1984 Schwinn World Sport step through. This was my sister's. I tore it apart- I still use the stem from that bike. Sold the frame about 5 years ago.

1979-ish Raleigh Sprite. Tore it apart, built it up with parts from the World Sport (and a little later, parts from a 70s Suburban). Sold it for scrap.
