Friend has a warehouse, pictured, he has A LOT after many years of collecting. Some envy, but a 350 square foot basement keeps the collection manageable for me...



Not even the half of it!

​​​​​​​Best, Ben

The Bertoni still awaiting the decals.

Wall hangers...Mondia and Moto Grand Record
Funny - I just looked at the bicycles and did not see anything else! And I am an archttect too - which makes it even more embarrassing. I have not been practising it since far back in time though as I got into manageing around 1999-2000. Looking at the pictures with both eyes now and it looks even more fantastic!

My collection is very modest compared to some of these being shared! I've got three bikes hanging in this little nook in my office. Another on the trainer. And my wife and I each have a bike in the building basement for commuting, which has easier outside access than our apartment.

styggno1,
Thanks for the kind words, from the looks of you other collection, you seem to be very successful...Like bikes, we can only use one, watch at a time...depending on where you wear them!!

BTin NYC,
We all started as "trolls", I wish that my collecting was under control...consider yourself lucky.

All the Best to Everyone, Ben

All of my bikes are dead

Until they are underneath me.

Then do they ever come alive.
