    Great thread, just in time for spring!

    Lots of bikes at our place. I have three old-skool Raleigh 3 speeders rocking around town. You could all me the "fleet administrator". I give/loan them to people and they just keep going, they bring them back when they break, it<s fun to be biking around downtown and see one of your "loaners" chained to a post somewhere!

    Andre, your Univega had me doing double takes, it reminds me of one of my favorite bikes. My dad rode an old 63cm frame raleigh road bike all over europe and he had it while we were kids. It got too rough and he hung it up in the rafters and ended up buying a nicer racer, and I eventually laid claim to it. At 6ft4 it was about perfect for my frame, so I built it up and rode it for a few years as my main commuter. But, it was always a little too big for me and I eventually started riding a smaller frame. It got stripped and the frame got hung up for a while. My girlfriend rows competitively and I was at practice one day checking it out and this poor guy, about 6ft 6, shows up on a super small and rusty race bike. Poor guy looked so uncomfortable. So I built up a parts-bin-special racer out of the old raleigh frame and gave it to him. A few years later he's still riding that big blue horse.

    My own bike fleet is an 80's bright purple tange frame setup fixed gear with profile deep Vs and Surly hubs, a Trek Fuel 80, an awesome Azonic dirt jump frame I am building up single speed, and an old Pista track bike that my girlfriend has laid claim to...

    Keith and I ride Giants. A Reign for the dirt and a TCR for the road. Wiffy has the same bikes. Good thing is I can steal parts from her bikes. Bad thing is I spend twice as much on parts.

    I always joke with my wife, "If you come home and find my bikes, Land Cruiser and dog gone, be worried. I might not be coming back...."

    Well it has been a very long time since I have ridden but that will change soon. Here is my trusty Rascal. In the 90's, this bike meant more to me than anything. I had to take out a loan for it. It cost a lot more than the Camero I was driving at the time. I love this bike and would never get rid of it although I did consider it at one point. I just bought the love of my life her first bike for her birthday, a Trek 7.2. Now I have a partner to ride with again and look forward to riding all the fantastic trails in New England.



    The bike is in pretty much the same condition as it was when I rode it back throughout the 90's except for the pedals. I had a set of Onza clipless pedals that were rusted out and my Sidi's were shot and I didn't want to buy new shoes so I just threw on the Haro flatties. XTR, XT and LX groupo with Syncros bits for good measure.

    My wife's. Bought it to convert to SS, but was a little too small for me. Might be a little big for her, but she enjoyed our little ride this week. If she catches on to cycling (I really hope!), I'll get her a proper bike. Please ignore the gigantic DH pedals that I put in place of clipless that she is not ready for yet.



    Hopefully will add a bike or two to the stable this year.
