I bought my first mtn bike in '86, by my 2nd I was doing custom builds and all except 2 since then have been some sort of personal machine, not including the tandem.
My XC for 3 years after I sold my last the DH bike
My first squishy in 3 years, purdy
And of course a few other pedally machines around...

I'm 1x1_Speed_Craig. I ride fixed & SS exclusively, and love my Steelman fixxie/SS 'cross bike & Soulcraft SS MTB almost as much as life itself (not really, but close).

Some pretty cool bike in this thread. Here are two of mine.
Fuji Track Pro. New for 09 season, we got the whole team on them. Very cool to have the whole team on the same stuff.
This is my Serotta CHT at Chequamegon 2 years ago. I like to say it's "fully non suspended." Still have it but it's being replaced with a carbon Scalpel this year.
I'll post the others soon.

Howdy, first post, but long time lurker.
Here are the three I have pictures of at the moment, but there are too many more. Probably 10 bikes or so in the garage between the wife and I.
This is my do everything bike, from single trac to groceries

Then we have the vintage go fast:

anf the new go fast, begging for some serious underbiking:

You might be able to see a pattern, steel and 700c. I hve come to realize that these bike can take me anywhere I want to go, maybe not as fast off the pavement, but then I would probably miss the bobcats, pigs, deer and other stuff I am out there to se anyway. For an in depth explanation of underbikeing:

and the rest of their articles are pretty good too if you have not seen them before

Hi ! My name is Jean-Sebastien and I ride many bikes. Just not as often as I should.
- 1982 Peugeot Record Du Monde Fixed Gear
- 1988 Kuwahara ProStar Fixed Gear (build not completed)
- 2004 Giant XTC custom build 19.2lbs (old pic)
- 2001 Giant Boulder "HD". Will one day be built for extended touring, just need a few more parts to complete. No pictures, but here's a link to an article about the wheels I built for it. Right here. I'll be sure to make a thread when it is complete.
- And many more...
