Humm from 1978
Well lets see I bought a touring bike to ride on up the California coast after I graduated High School in 1980. So I think I bought that bike in 1979 to get ready for the trip.

1979 Schwinn Le tour-sadly it was stolen shortly after my big tour.
1982 Mer'al my first real bike bought while stationed in Germany.
1983 Torpado Super Racing
1984 Schwinn High Sierra Thought I would give this mountain bike thing a try.
1994 Trek 970
1997 Waterford RS 1200 A birthday present from my wife after my Torpado was stolen.
2008 Hampsten Cinghale with 2000 Campy Chorus taken off the Waterford.
2009 Redline Monocog flight 29er, lots of fun.
2009 Curtlo my all rounder.
200? Humm whats next

I still have the Hampsten, and Curtlo. It seems my cycle is about every ten years I get something new humm it is about that that time for something new.

Over 80 bikes since the early 90s. Mostly road bikes with a smattering of mountain bikes and et cetari (Raleigh Sports, Peugeot city bikes, etc).

It's an affliction.
