here's mine, really love it. if i had to keep one bike this would almost be it.

that Poprad is on my list of must haves. stunning looking bike.

Awesome bikes on this thread allround but that San Jose is a beauty, mind me asking where you got it? Bianchi UK flatly refuse to stock the San Jose - they told me this at Cycle Show today - and I need one! what size frame is it? looks like a 50cm... if so, that's what I'm after! :D
 
Here's my pair.

Late 89 Alan, still work in progress.... Mavic mechs, hubs, chainset. XT non-lo-pro cantis, Primax headset, 600 seatpost

This is the new CX ride this year.
Lots of years of mtb riding, migrated to CX and love it.
Still doing a lot of both.

This thing rides like it's on rails.

Not retro (apart from the ideal of form being as important as function) but here's this season's incarnation of my pair of Empellas.

I'm not looking forward to replacing them and the bar tape every couple of weeks when the proper cross weather comes :cry: :cry: :cry:
