Bikes of A and S Show your ride!!!

With all the drama, sturm and drang, logic, illogic, etc of A&S I think we all forget we are cylists first....opinionators and master debaters second.

So show off your ride and remember the common ground

here is my main ride.....Nishiki utility/commuter that completely rebuilt.





here is my weekend go train ride (which does not get nearly enough time) Miyata 1400

Well I know it's not a "drive side" shot, but this is the side that faces motorists... hence the orange overlay on my bag.

This is the one that led to all the others and taught me the meaning of take the lane.



Rack, basket, lights, and fenders, already a well developed utility sensibility.

Yup, only four current rides.

You must have a heck of a storage area.

Of course I haven't really stopped collecting either.

I don't know how many bikes I have. 30 or 35, I'd guess.

unless you're collecting things theres only some many bikes a person needs!

i like to keep the stable rotated, sell a couple a year, build up a couple more. always rotate the steeds, keep them fresh.

i used to fancy myself a collector but hate the clutter.
