I've only had 5 (road) bikes since I started racing in 1988:

Peugeot Mirage - until 1995;

Trek 1000 - 2000, replaced because it was crap

Orbea Zonal - 2001, replaced because I got a great deal on next bike

Look KG281 - 2002-2003, replaced because stolen from Camps Bay

Giant TCR Comp - 2003 to date, not likely to replace unless it breaks or is stolen.  Don't have pics of any except the Giant.

Peugeut Mirage..mmm...now that brings back memories. The red one with, now what was it 105 groupo?, with those downtube shifters with the black plastic caps. o yes and yellow smooth bar tape

 

Next came the Bridgestone. Pink, yellow, white - the same one Willie Engelbrech use to win the Raport Toer with - this was one sweet bike

Wasnt it 300Exage or something like that.I know the 600EX became Dura ace.

 

 

 

no it did not. DA has been in existance since the wheel was invented. I actually think Shimano invented the wheel. Anyway, my first bike had 300exage on and for R200 more I could have had the 600. They were below 105 at the time. That was in 1992.
