Retro Bicycle Thread

This is my very blue Vitus 979 I finished a couple weeks back.

My son recently got the instructions for his matric final art project.......the subject is "blue". Would you please be so kind as to send your Vitus for him to hand in as his final exam artwork? He'll be assured of a 100% mark  but I cannot guarantee you'll get your bike back!

SNAP!

 

The 979 is such a great bike to ride. Never ceases to amaze me how comfortable they ride.

 

Nice work Dan.

Was thinking of Pantani when I found this in my boxes recently. Styled around in my yellow Brikos the rest of the day.

I am having an emotional Friday evening after a crappy week at work and then scrolling through the L 'Eroica photographs from last weekend.

 

Guess the glass of merlot is not helping.......
