Here's my green bike on a green bridge. Perhaps C if not actually V.
I suppose this could have been posted into the non drop bar tourer thread also.

1970 Dawes Galaxy. I don't have a pic but the green frame pump is a close match.

I love green and I'm 4 Fuji's, and I especially like this shade of green. My long put-off plans to turn this rusty '75 S10S into a single speed is ½ way done, but back in a holding pattern but it's getting there. Rusted chrome and oxidized aluminum that's too far gone to salvage is being painted black.
I messed up on painter's taping the head badge

Excellent! Many of my favorite bikes seem to be green. My current go-to bikes for C&V events are both green.

I missed this thread AND St. Patrick’s Day yesterday. 😲 I’m still touring, but on the El Camino Real now, in not-so-sunny Southern California. This is a recycled pic, but only a few days old. 😉

Sold my RB-T too soon for this thread but I still have a couple lying around for pix. How about green with different green fenders? Cimarron wearing Zefals.
Green with stainless fenders, the little Swiss Condor 3-speed.
And green with matching fenders; Pearl, the 23" ladies' Sports.

...Or just make my own ano bath and dye setup. The Vitus equivalent of Italianate pantographing! How hard do you think that might be!

I just remembered, the nipples on my front wheel have red anodizing, but they’re faded to a light pink now. 🙄 Both hubs are XT M739, and both rims are Mavic 217 SUP, but the rear has silver nips. 🤔

OK well my two daughters were championship level Irish Dancers, my name is Patrick, I have Irish in my blood from my grandmothers side of the family, I plan on painting one of my projects green, but this is the best I can do for now. A little green on the seat cluster.
