You should show the rest of the bike
There can never be enough beach. That is a fantastic view, where is that?
What bike is that? It is beautiful, I love the details; the crankset, the seat and seat post, the stem, the handle bar wrap, the brakes, the gum wall tires, truly very nice.
You have one of, if not the best collection of bikes I have seen. Each are set up pretty much the same way that I would have them, were they mine. It looks like we ride the same size too. Truly great stuff.
Beautiful bikes and beautiful scenery. The Roberts and the Trek are real gems. Where are those pictures taken?

I love this Colnago, the brown Regal saddle is a very nice touch.

Heh, wait a minute VR.
Are you holding out on us with that Weigle?
I don't recall seeing that before.
A link to additional pics please.

Now that Vonruden has made an appearance, a good majority of the bikes I've lusted over on this forum are now represented. Great stuff everyone.

Gomango, more to come. Just landed last night. I actually purchased another that sustained some damage by UPS and will require repairs, sorting through that has not been fun. More to come.
Back to Bike Pron...let's see some more.

Sorry to hear that. Makes me cringe every time I ship something.
I've got a bike heading to Austin, TX right now for 5 days of riding in the hills.
Hope it makes it in one big piece.
However, you are lucky to find a JPW. I've been waiting for five plus years for the right one.....

Pete, please give me a call when you get a chance this weekend. Let's get our calendars out and set up a couple of dates for interested folks.
The weather is already looking much more favorable.

I'll be in your neck of the woods today on the Roberts. Taking it on it's maiden (to me) metric century, with a stop a Calhoun cycle to check out saddlebags. It needs it's first Minnehaha Falls photo also.

Will do, gotta get something planned. The weather has me optimistic, not depressed.

If you want to try a Carradice before you buy one let me know.
I just picked up another Barley and you are welcome to try it out on that nice Roberts you built up.
