Subject: [CR]The Velo-Retro vintage bike collection...

Over the years I've had requests from the bicycle collector cognisenti for an invite to see my vintage bike collection, (rumored to number around fifty of all different eras and all on display in my living room, if the rumors are to be believed).

Many have wondered... how in the world would you display fifty bikes in a typical living room? I've always wondered myself... after all... I only had a couple of bikes the first few years I started riding. Then I found a few here and a few there over the next thirty plus years and the bikes in my collection just seemed to accumulate (?) in my living room.

Well here... this is my living room with my vintage bike collection... take a look for yourself!
