Here's mine. It was a little project that kind of got outta control.
Surly Crosscheck
rebrazed triple guides
Cane Creek Left Brake
Campy Mirage 9 Right
Shimano Rear Derailleur (didn't even need a jtek to get this to work!!)
Shimano m520 pedals
Tektro cr720/oryx Salmon Mtn Pads
Ultegra Compact front (gonna replace with a 39t and bbg guard)
Stock bars, stem, wheelset, 12/25 cassette
Probably gonna paint it orange and get some blue tape.

Nothing compared to most of your guys' bikes, but at least it was cheap.
I was skeptical about the flat bars, but after riding it on some MTB trails I'm glad I kept them. 8x1 XTR/XT drivetrain. Ready to find some CX races

Here's my 2007 TriCross Comp, set up for road duty. It's got just shy of 6,000 miles on it.

Here's a pic of mine. I just finished getting it together a few days ago. I bought a Kona Jake the Snake frame and transferred over my 2000 Lemond Zurich components to it. It has Ultegra shifters and front derailleur, rear DA derailleur, Paul's Neo Retro brakes, Mavic Open Pro wheels (with ceramic braking surface), Ultegra hubs and Maxxis Locusts tires. I had switched out the gearing on the Lemond to a 50/34 crankset and a 12-27 cassette previously, so this is the gearing on the new JTS. I'm new to cyclocross, but not new to cycling. I also have a 2009 Cervelo RS road bike and a Giant Rainier beater MTB.

Here is mine. Its a conversion of an old hybrid. I raced on it once with downtube shifters. They weren't too bad, but I did finish 2nd to last.

Took 8 months to get the parts ( well actually the funds) and 2 months to assemble. Full scandium frame, carbon fork. Force shifters and rd. DA crank, xt hubs laced to mavic ma40 rims. avic bb7 road brakes. Ritchey stem and post w/noname bars spesh seat. Yeah, it's a 1 x 10 and I have yet to drop the chain on my commute, maybe 500 miles so far. I love the fact that I built it myself , including the wheels, and I can go anywhere with it. Can't wait to race it.

Dusted off the bike (actually stole it back from my teammate) for a ride. Sorry I'm blocking it a bit...

I think you need to have a single speed to rock a sticker like that. I think it's a UCI rule or something.
BTW, nice bike and caught in it's natural state.
