heres mine and dont laugh, it may be old but this is my only bike and it never lets me down. i bought this looking like this 2 years ago from a bloke who only rode it to the shops and back about once a week and left it to stand in the shed the rest of the week.

before.

and after setting it up how i wanted it replacing all the old rusty stuff for new ive finaly got it perfect after two years, i dont care who hates it, i bloody love it,

[IMG] [/IMG]

so what you riding and why? even if its a bag of nails if you love it screw what everyone else thinks.

I love this bike 😀

This one's currently in "commute" mode with slick tyres. Might be going to make room for the cross bike 😮

New shiny road bike 🙂

I'm getting rid of this one ('cos the one above is new), using some bits on my cross bike and selling the rest.

Here's mine, pic a couple of years old now, but bike is unchanged apart from a slightly lower rise bar.

BTW, why so defensive about yours? I like it, and I wouldn't expect it to draw too many negative comments.

Pulled out of a skip.

The Ellsworth will be in the post tomorrow though, with a new bouncy bike to replace it. that'll be all XT rather than SLX though.

Sadly the one getting the most use at the minute is the little red road bike. All the rest are the same though the Evil is getting new XT brakes and the De Rosa is finally making the swap from Campag to 2012 Ultegra.

The Evil is the best, though.

If it breaks I'll get another. If I die want my ashes put in the seat tube and the bike to be given to someone who'll ride it in nice places.
