@oddjob2, the pictures don't show. Dropbox isn't great for images.

It was the antithesis of fun. But man was it green!

Not as elegant as some of the other bikes here, but it's the only green bike picture I have at the moment.

First will be the AMF Hercules. I really need to get back to this one. Needs a new crank and crank arms....
Next is a truly green Bianchi Campione. As nice as this is I always pass it up for another ride. Will probably move this one on locally shortly so it can be used.
My Kona Jake the Snake, green, yellowish green and yellow. Last bike I've been on since it's what I was riding when the stupid dog wrecked me, separated my AC joint that's still jacked up.
Not sure if this counts. Unique half green, half orange Lemond.
