thanks for posting this. it is very interesting. so many bikes! and exactly my size. you'd reckon the pegorettis will end up going for a small fortune each.

interesting mix of gear on the bikes. campag chorus on one for example. i guess i just expected it all to be top flight. srm power meter on some but not all.

interesting concept owning more bikes than one could manage (even know about perhaps). i struggle with the idea of having a bike that gets no love.

Wow that's some collection! So many bikes, some real unusual ones in there too.

I'm no bike value buff, but why anyone pay $1850 for a pashley guvnor is beyond me.

I've love that Biachi - https://paddle8.com/work/bianchi/124591 ... d-edition/

.. and that's pretty dope too - https://paddle8.com/work/masi/124624-3v ... d-edition/ (pun intended)

It is indeed a unique collection. But it definitely seems like they are charging a premium because they were owned by Williams.
