Yeah yeah nice Jeep & all but dang that’s a clean set up for the bikes.

Whats the orange one & I see a Schwinn with non STI brake levers. DA maybe??!

The orange bike is built on a Taiwanese carbon frame a friend was checking out for his private label bikes. He gave me one to build up and ride to give him feedback. It's running SRAM Rival 10 speed. It has wheels I built on it right now because of my current weight. It usually haas American Classic CR420s. The yellow Schwinn is a 1991 Waterford built Paramount running Shimano 105-SLS from the same time period and 105 SC brakes. It's the bike I ride when ever I lose the love of cycling. That one brings the joy back.

You can't beat the straight sixes for torque and reliability.

It made several trips to California for the double centuries.  the longest was to Davis.

I should add the trip is more comfortable in the 2019 Cherokee!

Any long trips with this one will be on the tow bar behind the motor home... B)
