It will be unlocked on my porch for about 10 seconds, while I close the front door before heading out. Be fast!

My Allez Pro
Here is my bike, a 2006 Allez Pro built with Campy Record, which I've always wanted. I have a S-Works carbon handlebar, which I need to install, and next year the Ksyrium Elite wheelset will be upgraded to Ksyrium SL ESs.

Thanks, it is a great color if I may say so myself. It has a very slight hint of metallic to it. It isn't that bright in the shade. This is one responsive bike.

Here's my Schwinn Super Sport - full Suntour Cyclone components. Rescued it for $80 with a destroyed rear wheel and bar tape in shreds. It was sitting in the driveway of a man who I originally was going to buy a Univega ten-speed from - when I saw the Schwinn, I knew I had to get it instead. It was light, good-looking, and woefully neglected. I talked him into selling it (he was very reluctant at first), and after a bit of negotiating it was mine.
In the past years and through different upgrades (new wheelset, levers, calipers, tape, freewheel, saddle) I've managed to turn it into something that I really enjoy riding. It's quite svelte at twenty-one pounds, especially for an 80s steel framed road bike. Here we go:
