Very few bikes, perhaps 3-5. They have a LeMond raced bike from the TdF, a Bottechia if I recall. A Major Taylor bike was on loan there (don't know if there at the moment). Many framed jerseys (many from recent riders), lots of trophies (old and new) and assorted memorabilia. They inherited a big part, or all, of the Frank Kramer's (early 1900s track star) trophies, ribbons, etc.; interesting to look at. I was surprised when I looked at the website just now that they have moved, from downtown Somerville to Bridgewater ("The U.S Bicycling Hall of Fame is temporarily located at the Heritage Trail - Van Horne House in Bridgewater, New Jersey".). All the photos on the website are from the Somerville location. So, until someone checks into their new space it's hard to say if it has improved or if it's not as good. They always seemed to be struggling to stay open. Angel Garcia Long Valley, NJ
