Crikey Pikey that's an awesome collection. Three of my favourite brands and not a Spaz in sight.

But they all have Spez saddles, which are the best. Beautiful bikes.

I also sit on a Spaz logo. It's part of my protest...

I'll have words with Pikey as soon as this incarceration is over!

My 1983 Alan has been with me since new and has not been used very much lately. I decided to give her a good polish with the intention of selling her. She cleaned up really well and after a short ride she changed my mind. She is not for sale! Still so smooth and responsive and in my eyes a real Italian stunner.

My Pinarello F8 Froomey Edition road bike.

Swore i would never get a electronic groupset. But after riding this beauty, i will never go back to mechanical again.
