Evening all, newcomer alert! Nice to see I'm not the only cycling fan on here too, some cracking bikes in this thread alone!
My 'main' ride is one of these...
https://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/bikes-and-gear/bikes/road/1255434932108-qnk1sjwez56b-500-70.jpg
...love it to bits, my first proper road bike and I've done probably a good 2,000 miles on it now.
Bought a new mountain bike last year to 'do' Llandegla on. I've only been once though and that was four days ago!
Impressed with the bike though, always been a fan of Treks as they seem really well built...

I'm also bang into classic roadbikes, have a few here and sold a few more recently to fund my 'habit' of the others!

This is a very recent purchase which again I love to bits. I think the sort of 1970s era was the best for bikes, due to funky colour schemes etc. It rides really nicely too...

And this I've just sold to fund some others...

I have a few more pictures of current and former bikes too if anyone wants to be bored enough to look at them! |

Two Stroke, you are after my heart. I own 23 push bikes at home, I would take a picture but I would have to put them all in one place or take loads of pictures. I have all sorts of bikes. I might actually join in this game, I might get all the bikes together tomorrow. ____________________ Current:1991 Honda MT50 (Soon to be a H100/MTX/MT5 hybrid), 1976 Honda Cub C70, 2005 Honda Varadero 125, 1993 Yamaha TTR250 Open Enduro , 2010 Road Legal Stomp YX140, 1994 Honda CRM 250 MK III, 1999 Cagiva Mito 125, 1992 Honda CB400 Super Four, Stomp T4 230, 1984 Honda H100s, 2009 Sym XS125K

That last one looks very unusual and cool. I am such an idiot, I was playing with my 1958 Raleigh today and I didn't even think about this.
Here's my fixie the first day I finished it, pretty easy project, just the wheels and then some odd bits here and there, If I was doing it again, I would save myself a lot of money by just welding up the freewheel, was originally a MTB.

here's just a load of them piled together, not all of them however.

I have a 1933 Raleigh, my great grandads, he was 6ft 8 and it is HUGE. The ladies bike is a 1952 Triumph, at the back of the pic is a 58 raleigh, i also have an old Humber.
The triumph is a doner bike, the frames snapped, i may fix it one day. I had a red Phillips Phaser as well, i lost that in the garden somewhere. I got a 90's speccy rockhopper for free recently.
I love my fixed gear though because it is so garish, you can see it on the right of the pile before i trashed the drivetrain, this is why I transformed it.
Yesterday, after promising my mum that I would stop, I came home with an 80's ish road bike, found it for a tenner, not too bad either.
I don't know if you ever encounter this; bike out for scrapman, you ask to take it instead and then they want charge you! They were happy for the pikies to make money out of it but when I want it for bits they want some payment when the scrapman wouldn't pay them. It's annoying.

That BMX is phenomenal. I have never owned a BMX, I really want to get a vintage one, but I think I'm too tall, I'm 6 foot 5 and have always felt too tall on them, yet I love them.
Two Stroke: My Phillips came from a scrapman, I swapped my mums washing machine for it, it only needed the tyres pumped up and a bit of cable tweaking. It turns out, my dad lent it to my great uncle, his uncle, as he needed a bike urgently, at least I know where it is now, I'll probably get it back eventually too.
Bikes aren't worth much weighed in because of all the plastic casings, tyres, mixed metals, I once scrapped a couple of Apollo frames I had knackered and some other stuff, me and dad filled his land rover with scrap, and they gave us a £15 for the mixed scrap. He might be selling them, as he would get more for it that way, even for a tenner each he'd get more than scrapping them. ____________________ Current:1991 Honda MT50 (Soon to be a H100/MTX/MT5 hybrid), 1976 Honda Cub C70, 2005 Honda Varadero 125, 1993 Yamaha TTR250 Open Enduro , 2010 Road Legal Stomp YX140, 1994 Honda CRM 250 MK III, 1999 Cagiva Mito 125, 1992 Honda CB400 Super Four, Stomp T4 230, 1984 Honda H100s, 2009 Sym XS125K

I built it myself so I could get to grips with how to build repair bikes. I'm aware that the seat post is back to front on this picture but it was taken after a quick mock up.
