Bianchi Pista (2007) and Veloce (2002) I love Bianchi steel frame bikes. So sad they are dropping several steel models from their 2008 lineup...

Hmmm. Several to contribute, I guess, though only one of them is a true roadie, in the sense of this forum, so I'll start with that:
Gazelle Trim Trophy (one below the Champion Mondiale that's elsewhere in this thread). Now wearing Campy Chorus Look compatible pedals.
Raleigh Gran Sport, outfitted with lots of non-standard things. Love it!
EG Bates Track bike
Nigel Dean fixed gear.
Unknown brand single speed in chrome
And my tourer - a Raleigh Royal. I'm sure I'm forgetting some though...

chzman, my buddy has one of those Viners in red, I gave it a testing out and it was a pretty sweet ride. Those carbon seat stays can't be any larger in diameter than a pencil and I would sure hate to lay it down on those things.

Professional Fuss-Budget
OK, another Surly Cross-Check -- one that won't blind you with its color scheme. 
Pretty much stock right now, including the saddle.

A Columbus SLX frame (despite what the frame decal suggests) built by Mc Bain in Tasmania. This early SLX frameset had plastic inserts in the fork crown - now plugged with brass nameplates. Nuovo Record Gruppo with the porta catina chain derailling system and a Super Record seat pin.
