Haven’t seen one of these in a while. My bikes have names (and very distinct personalities)
Mine:
Eric: My scrapheap fixie and daily driver aka Fixie 1.0, The Hawthorn bike…
Mario: De Rosa Vision Roadie with Campy Daytona
Roy: Jamis Cross Country MTB
Sir Walter: Raleigh SS MTB (Polo bike)
Mrs. Ants:
Layla: Fuji Absolute Flat Bar Roadie
Suzie: Pegasus SS aka The Valentine’s day pressie
Mine:
Late 70’s / early 80’s Whitehorn built Malvern Star Track
Early 90’s Europa Track
60’s Super Elliotts Track
Unknown Road (that was my first fixed conversion). In pieces.
Waiting to be built: 1930’s Lewis Pathracer.
Girlfriends:
80’s “Raleigh” Track.
70’s Malvern Star SL500 ladies step-through
Waiting to be built: 1950’s ladies step-through single speed
Random bikes:
Chinese made Malvern Star being made to a SS for a friend.
Repco Traveller ladies step-through, being slowly fixed up for ebay.
Two Super Elliotts ladies step through frames.
A Hudco single speed utility bike, with no BB or crankset (that’s on my Super Elliotts track bike).
I mean all this is about is showing off and saying that you have the best shit, but you cant ride for shit and dont race, even though you have racing specs and parts, which just provs a general point that fixie posers are wasting good bikes.
Bit harsh, not a show off just interested is all… my question to you as you seem to be the be all and end all of bikes is what makes you different?? any world titles??
