What road bike do you have?

Notices
Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

What road bike do you have?

^ thats Klein is Supa-Oldz-Skhul

seriously there are bike enthusiasts in Europe who collect that era of Klein bikes to the point of fetish levels... you could sell that baby for tons-o-cash on eBay if you have the right people bidding against each other.

my favorite part of those Kleins is how sage like the maker was in predicting future trends with his bikes.

That is a slick looking Coppi - we don't see too many of them over on this side of the Atlantic. I'm riding an early 2000s Yellow Star myself. You see a lot of them on eBay for sale from Hungary (and the UK occasionally too)
