Also think, the "The Pedal Room" would be a cool name for a website chronicling your collection.
Yee Gads! How do you get the one in the middle out?

Awesome collection of bikes! Do you still have your GT LTS-3? I just purchased the exact same year and model. Would love to discuss.

Wow nice collection.
Do you have a favorite rider and why?
Try and negate asthetics or loyalty to a brand or type if you can.
With your collection some things must stand out over others and I would be interested in your opinion.
Thanks

Ok I feel better now, I don’t have too many bikes! Nice collection, although it would take a warehouse to properly display them.

I do, still in need of restoration, might be selling it too.

Here's how far I've gotten in the photography of each bike, https://www.facebook.com/jlangcollection/

They're each different in their own way, the ones that fit me best are certainly favorites, but some are just gorgeous works of art. I built up an All-City Space Horse and the fit is perfect and its a very capable bike, its been my go to rider recently.

I unfortunately can't really see the photos because I do not have a FB account but when the page first opens your Purple and Gold Klein makes my knees weak. Love it. Can you PM me? It won't let me because I'm a new member. Thanks

Go to photos, you should be able to see a few albums, not all though.

Oh WOW!

Finally viewed your photos (i'm not a FBer, but no probs viewing) and I must say - beautiful job on a huge task. But seemingly, A Labor of Love. You guys who seek and collect these lovely beauties of Classic perfection and document them so thoroughly, humble me. I'm a cobbler and a slob (but still riding C&V w/ a Smile)

Many of mine are best viewed for their potential - for elegance and beauty inflight, rather than from detailed photos.
