1) Klein Rascal -- early '90s with green / black fade. Probably $!5K+ miles. It will go on the mantle someday. (even though they sell for $$$$ on eBay)
2) Ti roadbike.  Custom frame, geometry and components.  14.3lbs in 1999.  It's still a rocketship and great climbing / all day ride.  Only problem is that you feel guilty not pedaling it at 30+mph on the road.
3) Klein Attitude -- last of the pre-Trek wunder bikes. Last count was 43K miles on it since 1998 when I built it finally.  About 60% of the mileage is road w/slicks and the rest is mtnbiking.  It's been from Moab, Grand Canyon, New Mexico, Colorado, Julian, Flag, Mt. Tam, San Jose, St. Helens, Olympics to regular rides now around the Capital Forest and the Northwest.  Last "big ride" was from Seattle to San Diego in 30 days with a trailer in tow... (story here:  The Great Pacific Coast Escape )

Yes -- I'm a bicyclist without a doubt.  Enough so that currently we are designing some incredible "smart" high output LED lighting systems for night time riding.

This post is useless without pictures.  cheeky

Thanks for the complement about my IndyFab. Its a 1998 believe it or not. The original Steelman fork got damaged in a sprint crash, so I ended up revamping the bike from the frame up. It used to look like this...



If I dont end up getting a team deal on a C-dale Super Six, I would like to get a custom IF Ti Crown Jewel .

I love Steeleman products!  Used to have a Eurocross a few years back, but had to let it go.  Don't really know why I sold it instead of the Kona.  Sad

And I will try to get some pics of my bikes up when I get back from work, deal?  Wink
