Well, on a good day, I ride my 72 Cinelli SC. On a bad day, I ride either an 80s Atala or the 70s Chiappini. However as age creeps up, I do spend a lot of time on an old Raleigh Sport. It's a three speed with a wider Brooks saddle, upright handlebars, wider tires, fenders, a bell, and a bag for my beer and Cheetos. I ride now more for relaxation and exercise than trying to keep up with the young racers in the area.  Whenever I build up a new bike, I'll ride it for a week or so then put it up with the rest of my bikes. Since I work for a park system with several miles of paved bike trails, I ocassionally take a bike to work and ride as I do my safety inspections.
