Bicycle pics - post them up

I haven't seen any thread for bicycle pictures on this site yet, so i'll start one.

These are mine, which are both Schwinn road bikes. The white and red one has studded snow tires and is used when there's snow on the roads or in the forcast. Currently it's ready to go. The silver one is used the rest of the time when the roads are clear.

Here's my daily Driver


This is what I ride when I don't have to carry anything or if I want to do a little urban assault riding. There is also a bootleg BMX park ( with city permission) about 2 miles form the house.

I'll post pics of my 'daily riders' when I pull them out of the garage. The year-rounder is rusting away at the moment from this winter's salt:/

MadisonMPG,
Do that have a place for water bottle cages? I can't tell from the pictures but nice ride. Looks like an awesome city commuter?

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.

It does, it is a WONDERFUL commuter. I ride 15-20 miles on it with NO problem at all.

Here's one bike I've had over the years, probably the most entertaining bike. My friend riding it fits it best, at 6'8" although we can turn the fork around for us shorter guys, and flip the handle bars too! It was awesomely customizable. And the brake was on the rear, just a pull string on the top tube. Felt like stopping a train, with the whole cable pull thing. Distance too
