The photo credit here actually belongs to a colleague - phone pic snapped by either Jackson, on the Lemond, or Dylan, on the Miyata 912 in the middle. I don't recall for certain. My bike is the Mercian on the right.

Come April 22 and you'll have had it an even decade. Glad to see you still have it and are using it as intended. DD |

I knew the bike on the far right before I saw the BF handle (I was scrolling up from the bottom) :)

DD I only have one bike I've owned longer, the '85 Nishiki Prestige I bought as a frame set in 2009 or 2010 and built up after moving to Vancouver from Montréal. That Mercian is a keeper - great fit and a bike that just feels special to ride. And the only bike I have with period-correct full Campagnolo group (minus the Modolo Pro levers I subbed for the ugly Dia Compes on there when I bought it). Bike is now also sporting '84 date code Brooks Pro (matching year of frame manufacture), thanks to a purchase from Rootboy on the Forum here a few years ago. Thanks for the reminder that an anniversary of sorts approaches, Jeff! Wouldn't have happened in the first place without your assistance. |
