I'm 42.

My fully functional bikes are: 2000 Heron touring (10 speed half step with 1970s vintage Campy and French parts) 1986 Jack Taylor Curve (Nuovo Record with Galli tapered roller bearings) 1983 Trek 720 (TA, Bullseye, Duopar, 3ttt adj. stem , my wife's bike) 1982 Gazelle Champion Mondiale Semi-Race outfitted as tourer (TA, Nuovo Tipo, Univeral Mod. 51 brakes, brazed-on kickstand, 531DB) 1980 Hypercycle (What a piece of crap!)

Bikes that could run with a couple hours work: 1950s Follis 650B tourer ~1960 BSA Gold Vase set up with a fixed gear 1938 Bruggermann track

Projects: <1914 Pierce Special Racer 1940s Sun Wasp with alloy brakes and Sil 3 speed derailleur 1946 Citroen 11BL Perfo (not a bike, actually) 1950s Rochet road racer (for my wife) 1950s Rochet randonneur ~1960 Armstrong Moth

If I count my wife's Trek, my Reynolds number is 3717. I hope this winter to move one of the projects into the fuctional category.
