Lovely bikes lovely, but everyday bikes interesting too. I won't post first, but I'm taking pictures right now.  1 I wanna see what bikes you're all riding!

Just picked up my Giant Propel Advanced 1 - full shimano Ultegra apart from the brakes, which are Giant's own aero design.
Only got to do a 8mile ride home but it is a beauty.

Only problem is that the charger is a tin pin electric shaver type, how stupid is that ?

Too nice!  16

I see many bikes on racy tyres like Schwalbe ones and ultremos how do you recommend them on long term e.g. punctures etc. ?

There is no doubt they puncture more than the likes of Conti GP and G-skins in my experience, but not badly enough for me to no longer buy. Also, I don't use them all year round as I have found they cut badly in the winter with more debris on the road
I get about 2000miles out of then, by which point they are badly cut and have flattened.

Genesis Volant 30 at the top of the Tumble climb in S. Wales.
Frame n forks brand new £97 from bikeshop on ebay, due to small chip in paint near dropout. Built up with spares as winter bike. Ridiculous wheels for winter bike I know, and no driveside pic as there's a big van to the right.

What wheels are they?

indeed, isn;t that what we are about, being able to afford what we want ?

I rode it a couple of days ago on a 50 mile and how jeez the EPS is fantastic. Shimano may be just as good but the thumb lever is so damn good.

I've got them as a birthday gift from my wife. They're incredibly fast and roll beautifully with no flex when putting power on them. I do a lot of my riding on crappy roads, and they dampen most of the road noise. Also, my climbing speed improved a lot with them. The only caveat is poor braking power with the provided brake pads. But that's easily fixable by installing some Swissstop Black Princes which make them stop just like aluminium rims. All in all, I'm very happy with this wheel set and I highly recommend them.

Its supplied with Sram Red, but I went down the dream build option that they offer... Only completed a 40 mile club run so far but smiled from ear to ear the whole time.

Only ridden the ultremos - but I have a set of Ones on order. I've had one pothole puncture and one thorn puncture. They are not a winter tyre but they are pretty fantastic and wear very well. Highly recommend.

Focus Cayo Evo, my first proper road bike.
Bought in January this year and, (incase the wife reads this) jewellery excepted, the best thing I have ever bought.

Important milestone in Son's Chinarello Maddog's life - she has just 'officially' covered 10,000 miles without any major hitch. Yep, she's had tyres, brakes and chains in that time but as promised (a couple of years ago) here is a photo. It did Morzine run this summer and still rides like a dream. Son will never sell it and has commented that he will ride it until it falls apart - it's not happened yet and for the initial cost of the build that is an important milestone, 0.083p per enjoyable mile.  4

Trikeman.  3

My recently purchased Rossin road bike, believed to be circa 1980, the original downtube gear control is now in the levers with Campy Chorus gear set. Likely to be using this in the summer/dry, currently using my new Forme Calver CX sport, great for commuting.

My Cannondale Synapse 2013 (I think!) 61cm frame that carried me wonderfully with no punctures, problems or mechanicals during all the training for and during LEJOG this summer. Triple chainset on it that was needed inCornwall.

Then, after riding over my dropped water bottle, 5 miles from home a couple of weeks ago, a spoke broke!

I've also out in my Trek 7.3FX hybrid that I use for commuting. 25inch frame for my 6ft 4 self. A good bike, fairly quick but not as good as the Synapse!
