87 Cinelli SC with spx tubes and off topic delta and C record my first really good bike and still a joy. Old Time mag titans with dettos. Ridden for occasional historic rides or nice days

83 Weigle in SL Columbus tubes in color shifting electric blue / iris purple with tutto Mavic. Mostly a wall hanger but so beautiful I have to occasionally show it off.

88 Colnago master light in red yellow chartreuse fade with dura ace 8 spd BRIFTERS. So vulgar it is beautiful. A sweet ride.

89 Fattic in electric blue and Kelly green metallic panels. It is just so delicately & beautifully made also with off topic DA 8 sp brifters.

91? Coppi with genius tubes and record 10 spd and ibis Ti stem. An Ebay frankenbike that I fell in love with. Hutchinson tubeless.The more miles I put on it, I love it more.

06 Dean mountain bike set up as a 29 er with discs a rohloff and 35mm hard surface cross tires. I don't feel bad getting it dirty riding my pre dawn miles on it and it gets used 4 or 5 days a week. Amazingly fun for a rohloff bike. Great around town and on backroads ( who says you can't love both race cars and trucks.)

08 Moots Vamoots Record 10 spd. Light fast (perhaps not with me as the source of motive force) SMOOTH. Definitely not soulless. I love this bike.

Current Project 82 ColnagoSuper repainted in Merckx Molteni livery. Cobbling it together in Belgium to ride in Europe. Super Record with tubulars. Should look a proper prat if I can find a Molteni jersey to match.

I love each one of them in a different way they are certainly better and worse at doing certain things but each is wonderful in it's own way.

Suffering unseasonable cold and icy roads in Fort Worth Texas USA.
