Amazing collection history---- thanks for taking the time to post these. Beautiful. All your bikes have a nice glow about them--- probably a combination of some frame waxing and a decent camera?

You have a clear fondness for some very "racy" bikes from the late 80's and 90's--- and the wild paint jobs and colors from those times. I miss those days as we are buried under a mountain of matte black carbon frames and derailleurs that look like Darth Vader's paperweights. I have a black carbon gravel bike, and I like riding it, but man is it ugly...

Now you need to show us the "keepers"!

Just out of curiosity, what is the bright green Columbus-tubed bike you are listing for sale?

PS: I built up a Fuji S-12s into a 650b gravel bike last summer, inspired by your bike above. Did it mostly to see what the fuss was about-- now the bike is "lent out" to a college kid who rows for my team, so who knows when I'll see it again.
