Well, first up is the Bob Jackson. Hopefully this will have a new loving home soon as I just have to admit it's too small.
Then this new to me Ciocc, only got it out a couple of times before the winter storms and it rides really nice:
Then there's my beloved 87 Schwinn Circuit sporting nice black Athena 11 speed components:

Kind of ho-hum after seeing some of the others in this thread, but this '92 Schwinn Crosscut holds a sweet spot in my heart as it's the only bike I have ever bought new. And, it's comfortable, and durable, as hell.

1996 FELT B2 Tri. Looks almost as young now as when it was raced 1996 - 2001. I've never been happier, or faster, on a bike. Thanks Tom Demerly, wherever you are!

I wondered how this thread got to seven pages already. Then I noticed that it was started last December. Is this December black bike month too? I'm not sure I had a black bike last year, but I do now.
