Thread Starter 
Please post pics of your bike here.

I love cycling, though it's not exactly my primary sport. Sorry, no pics of the bike at the moment. It's a Specialized Allez Double. Entry-level, but that hasn't slowed me down yet.

My first roadbike, from a couple years back. Vintage Alan Super aluminum with steel lugs from the late 70s. Current bike is a Trek with dura ace and carbon fsa cranks. Not really worth a photo.

I used to ride a couple years ago but not so much anymore.

Socal2nyc was a triathlete...

Entry level, but Trek 1000 here.

I commute a couple of times a week and a longer ride each weekend. This year I did a 210km ride in 37C heat that almost killed me.

My bike is a Cannondale R1000. It's a time trial bike modified for road use; I just love it.

I have a Bianchi. I used to do lots of centuries but not in recent years - too busy with other stuff.

Is there a difference in ride between this and a straight-up road bike because of the different frame?

You commute on that thing? You're my hero.

Time trial and tri bikes have steeper head and seattube angles and tend to have twitchier steering.

And the flattened frame. TT bikes are usually heavier.

Heres one of my rides: Also have a Litespeed Tuscany for winter training/long rides, and a Giant TCX setup with disc brakes for commuting.

The Colnago gets worked about 5 days a week ... sadly, the Bianchi only gets out of the house once a month or so. I have to start riding my bike to more places around town rather than driving.

Centaur equiped BMC.


Dura-Ace/Ultegra Cervelo.


With the moist winter Seattle weather, I've mostly been riding my Bianchi San Jose singlespeed lately. Yay for fender clearance.
