  1. here are my babies....

  2. Ironic name for that Apollo don't you think? Look at how much stuff you have loaded on that thing. It looks like a bike equivalent of a sherpa.

    Now that's an interesting team kit. 🙂

  5. I traded the hybrid in today for a 7300 FX Alpha SL Bontrager - Speed disc break; now I really like the bike I am using.......and I really feel the road!!!!!

  6. Here's my latest.
    2004 Gitane Mach 2200

    The old Apollo can be seen hanging up on the wall behind.

  7. Heres my road bike. Giant OCR Composite

    My Apollo Swift Flat bar

    img.photobucket.comIMG 1418.jpg

    These are not up to date pictures, and the bikes now both have SPD-SL pedals, and there are yellow tyres on the flat bar. My Giant has a Fizik Arione saddle now as well.

    funny that my rack is a "sherpa" brand one... 🙂

    i haven't even added my lights (nightsticks) and panniers on yet....

    ironic? Himalaya and Apollo?? please explain..

  10. Would love to show you all mine but how the heck do I do it?😕

    You all seem to put in links to sites.

    Can I attach a photo to my post or is there a better way and yes I do have a dig camera?

    you can attach but the files have to be pretty small... under 100kb i think

    i think you go to manage attachments

  12. Hope this works as here it is.

  13. Hope this is a better picture

    Shimano 540. 16 spokes per wheel. Apparently they aren't much good if you weigh too much but i don't have that problem and have found them alright.

  18. Dammit, I gotta find a way to post a pic of my latest effort. Being a big lad I've just procured a 2nd hand Columbus SLX frame and built it up out of bits as follows... 🙂

    60cm Custom built Steel frame powdercoated in Lime green. 8)
    Shimano Ultegra all round. 8)
    Mavic rims, Conti gatorskins front and rear. 8)
    46cm Botrager racelite handlebars. 8)

    It's all black and lime green, noice!!

    I'll post a pic when I can but that'll have to do for now... (No digital camera yet, will soon though)

  19. These are my babies. An 04 Norco Sasquatch, and a 4 month old Orbea Enol.

    Ive thrashed the guts out of the Norco, and its still going...🙂

    The Orbea is a pretty sweet ride. Its bottom of the mill as afr as Orbea go, but its serving its purpose nicely. Nice to ride. I will be getting a new saddle soon. Its a little hard on the ....
    Going to be a Selle Italia SLK gel flo (hopefully)
    Other than that, there both great bikes.
