Take the long way to work through the river valley.

Just out for a ride today, checking out some trains at the BNSF Intermodal Facility near me.

@tsl, thanks for all that. The wheels on my McLean are 700c. I have 27" wheels on my Super Course, which is now out on longterm loan. |

The rack is a Topeak Super Tourist DX rack with disc mounts, rigged to fit my bike with insulated P-clamps and a Problem Solvers seat post clamp with rack bosses. I got the rack with disc mounts because I hope to build up a dedicated commuter bike in the future, hopefully with disc brakes, and then I would switch this rack over to it. |

Here's my new commuter, a 2012 Jamis Aurora. It's my first bike since mine got stolen about 15 years ago when I lived in the city. I just started commuting 26 miles a day (13 each way) in May, a couple days a week (weekend rec rides not included.) Last week I did 3 days and this time tomorrow I'll have done 4! You all know what's coming next!
Anyways... It's nothing special compared with some of the bikes I've seen posted - especially the vintage and custom builds. It's basically stock aside from some painstakingly chosen accessories. That said, I'm quite fond of it and the miles are racking up quickly! http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=390843 Spur cycle bell: http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=390848 |

Weekend/ day trip setup:
http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=390849 and lastly, a feature I just discovered... the U-shaped rack holds a U-lock quite securely. Heck, why say "discovered?" I invented it. : ) http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=390854http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=390855 *sorry for breaking my post into two. I hit send accidentally and it was much easier to just add a post then to edit and embed all the pics into the original post. |
Here is my daily commuter. The first ever frame I built up thanks to the help of you guys. It's my Centurion Comp TA. This picture was taken while I had it out to lunch with me at Sonic. There ain't nothing quite like being able to take your bike right up to your table.

heh I made a Sonic run the other night for milkshakes for me and my wife. Threw them in my bottle cages and took 'em home. I specified no whip cream on mine because I put mine in the sloping downtube cage. :D

http://i852.photobucket.com/albums/a...IMAG1931_1.jpg Pic related, it's my bicycle's butt. I think I can concoct some sort of wooden or cardboard rig to wedge into one of the sides of the basket. I've got some old tubes laying around that I can use as a rubber grip for the cup holder |

New commuter! Finally upgrading from my old clunky heavy 90's Giant MTB. Just finished rebuilding this. Putting a rack on tomorrow.

sci guy, that's pretty HAWT! Love the splash of color on the bars. Lugged Raleigh frame looks really good, did you have it repainted? Fixed or Free?

83' Schwinn Sprint conversion, still waiting to have enough funds for a rear rack and panniers. |

Hey sci guy, nice job rebuilding that Raleigh. Looks great.

Here is mine I built it up from a regular mtn bike this is for running around on when not riding my recumbent and it is also gonna be used for this winter commuting back and fourth to work every once in a while I live 1.5 miles from work so not bad at all.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az2y...=youtube_gdata

My little project, 7700 DA STI's, drop bar conversion. Frame repainted, remaining decals masked off for that survivor look.
Just waiting on a few racks, fenders and my new seat. http://i62.tinypic.com/4tubes.jpg |
maybe it's just an illusion with the rail in the background, but that top tube looks reallllly long
