I've only had occasion to ride it twice (broken ribs kept me off the bikes), but the Badger bike dream has been wonderful so far... 
Many thanks to Jan for selling me this beauty.

"In your dreams!" That's what my wife said when I showed her some of the bike list that I wanted to buy. Since I'm really dreaming, might as well dream big or many! Anyway, here are some more line ups.

I'm already in the queue for a Richard Sachs, so my "dream bike" will be "my bike" sometime soon
...-ish.
But as long as I'm dreaming, I also wouldn't mind a Kirk Terraplane, an Ellis Modern Classic, a Llewellyn Cadenzia Lucentezza, a Pegoretti Responsorium Ciavete, and a Nagasawa Keirin/NJS track fixie.
Hey man, dream big or go home, right?

If things go well next year I will get a Co-Motion Epresso in pumpkin orange. Drive train will be Sram and a DT Swiss wheelset. Haven't really decided on bars, stem, seat post or saddle yet.

Soon... soon it will be mine (not soon enough though - lots of money).
Just get rid of that carbon fork and it's all set...

Was going to post that Rodriguez Outlaw too. I also love the Vanilla bikes by Sacha White and the polished stainless from Firefly:

How about a Gunnr Sport?
Something like this. A quetzal green metallic Sport with a Campy mix, Sugino 46-36-26 crank, and Peter White wheels. I put a nice silver rack on it for light touring or long trips.
Of course, it's only one kind of dream.

I always wanted an Independent Fabrication bike so my dream will be an Ultegra build Crown Jewel in Lavender with White panels.

Probably something along the lines of a Waterford R33...
Though, since I already have a go fast Al, and my customized Ti bike covered... I'd likely go toward the less pricy more mainstream.
A Reynolds tubed Jamis Eclipse or Aurora would round out my stable nicely. Go fast or utliilty, hrmmmm.

Luckily I already own my dream bike Binachi with TSX Columbus frame and a Columbus EL fork.
But if I had to choose another dream bike I would want a Colnago for sure; this one would work...
