I cracked my Calfee last year. While it was being repaired, I raced and trained for a full season on my old Vitus 979. It looked odd built up with DA-10. And it was BRUTAL. Carbon has made me a pussy.
 
Peugeot PX10LE was my first 'real' bike...1974...way stiff, 531 throughout, chromed seat stays and 1/2 fork blades, way too steep for long road rides...factory high flange 3x copper tied spokes...sure was a blast for crits though.

Motobecane Grand Record was a nice ride back then...

...then there was my buddies Masi...and another's Strawberry...Bruce Gordon...wish I had 'em hanging in the garage now.
 
Here is that Super Sport, brought it home today and will tune it up and train for road work on this 30lb bike :eek: It also may be the the bike I do the 64miler on :eek: :eek:

I just found out that my Mario Confente built Masi track frame is priceless (by bicycle standards)! Of course I can never sell it, for sentimental reasons.

The old Masi 3V Volumetric classic rule.

For year's I rode a Bianche (Moreno Team) frame that Moreno Argintine won the '86 worlds in Colorado Springs on (not the same frame). SLX can not be matched (steel is real).

Original Serotta's (LeMond had his rebadged as a Huffy).

Had a Prestige Land shark built with Le Mond Geometry that was smooth as hell.

Montanger with external ribs.

Rossini Cubonic show bike.

Of course they all had Campy Record or C Record.

Course, now I just have some run of the mill Trek and Ultegra. :eek:

I'll join in... have a great steel 3Rensho road bike I take out for weekend spins. Stiff as hell but so much fun to ride. A true criterion bike. Campy components still work great (who needs indexing?).
