Beautiful bike!

Here's mine. It's seen some rough times, and isn't as shiny, but it rides awesome...


I got it used for $150 sans pedals at a bike swap in '95 I think.


Pretty much all orig. Shimano 600.


That white scratch on the head badge is from when I had it on top of my old car, and I stupidly drove under one of those parking lot height bars. Anyway, the handlebars grappled the bar, and utlimately took of the entire rack and bike off my car with 4 super loud snaps (the clips snapping off the roof of the car). I look behind me and the bike is swinging with the rack still attached to it. I felt pretty stupid. Cool thing is that the bike other than the scratch on the head tube and some bent handlebars is just fine, and still rides like a champ. Go Trek.
