The Groovy's are Roy's (Yo-Eddy)
The Zeileman is Melvins (Elev12k)
The Serotta is mine
 
The Zieleman I finished only yesterday. More pics up soon.

Some of you recognise the 1 of 3 Potts LE's. The owner bought it new and it has seen many miles all over the globe. Unique bike. An unique bike among many unique bikes. Few more words of several others:

- the Jan Gunneweg wooden bicycle
Designed and made by its rider, Jan Gunneweg. Piece of art and functional. Exceptional strong though quite light. Jan races a wooden roadbike of only 9kg. Survived many hard sprint including those with crashes that made carbon and other 'space age' material bike collapse. The shown commuter style bike is available from 5.995 euro. Bargain, isn't it? Jan's website => http://www.jangunneweg.nl/

- the Le Cadre
Designed by made by it's rider. Fillet brazed, neatly done. Casper is investigating the possibility of going full time into frame building. Currently he is doing 6 frames each year next to his daily job. Le Cadre has its basis in Zeeland (the delta's below R'dam) Visit => http://www.lecadre-bicycles.com/

- the Crisp titanium
Its owner, Jeroen, put A LOT inteligent design effort in the bike. Execution is done very well by Darren Crisp, a US citizen in Italy. A masterpiece and Jeroen even had a lot interesting documentation to show of his bike and bike several others made by Darren (to which Jeroen contributed too not seldomly)

Very fun bike was the Surly reading very expidition in extreme cold. The things on the bar are for keeping your hands warm. Understood it is also an excellent commuter.
 
Nice meet!

Great selection of bikes there. Distinctly superb in all cases....bar the home made FS ;)

Love seeing pics like this :)
