Here's a pic of my commuter. Bike is bone stock. Add-ons include rack and panniers, stem bag, front and rear lights, and a cheapie Wal-Mart bike computer. Oh, there's also a bracket to connect my Garmin Forerunner 305.

Looks great. I use a Black Peugeot Super Sport converted to single speed as my winter bike. If those pedals are the original Lyotard ones, I would suggest replacing them - the axle on mine snapped resulting in me falling in front of a bus. Got a few bruises and a cracked helmet from that fall....

Thanks for the compliments guys! It rides great. So much so that I am taking the brooks off my other bike and putting it on this one because I know it will be my main bike for a while.

You commute on those spinergy wheels? How do they hold up? Do you ride on super smooth roads or something?

More importantly, did you paint your B-B-Q grill to match your bike? That's dedication.

Only one set of tracks then the rest is "ok"...Lots of glass and debris though..Cant comment on how true they hold yet only bout 50 miles on them now..

The grill is several years old so I actually make the bike look like the grill.

Niiiice. I live in Portland and the other day I saw a guy commuting on an ABSURDLY large unicycle. It was unbelievable. Anyway, at stop lights (because it was so insanely large) he just hopped in place and waited for green. It was awesome.

Here is the new townie I am finishing up for the spring. I'm building around a Soma Buena Vista frame. I came to love the mixte I used last year so I put little money into one that fits. More on it is here on my blog:
