Top of the list, Megamo Equip Pro.
It took me well over a decade to find one, this is in perfect condition, its so simple yet effective. Its perfect to ride (I don't ride it often as I want to preserve it as is for as long as possible) But I enjoy every minute on it when I do.
2nd on the list, my 1996 Orange P7.
Its tatty, a bit knackered, etc but it was my first proper bike. After all these years I couldn't bear to be without it. It still has all the upgrades I fitted bitd like the yellow HS33's I had to have because I saw them on Dirty Tricks and Stunning C... (sorry I have always got that wrong)
3rd, Canyon Ti, ive still not built it up yet, but no rush as it will just be a show pony, its somewhere to house lots of special and fragile carbon, ti and prototype parts ive been saving for just such an occasion.
4th, Holt Lonsdale, its very old, very heavy but comfortable for linger rides, has a front and rear rack and its irreplaceable.
5th, Cant say yet, as bidding has not finished. Edit, Dawes Wildcat as soon as I can pick it up.
6th, Klein as I'm looking forward to building it, and thrashing it (its my motivation for getting out again and getting some fitness back.
The other 30 odd are only a decent offer or the need for a clear out away from being sold. Maybe they will just be kept as frames so I can store them easily and buy parts and build if I really fancy it.

I've updated the pedals to period correct XC-II's since this pic.
