Nah, that's a Dahon.

Psyche!

Accepted.

Currently regretting taking my Orbea to spain on that trip 11 years ago instead of my other bike at the time. A Merida in Merida... oh what could have been...

Wonder if I can find an angry person from Switzerland for my Swiss Cross.

Too late.

My Focus Cross:

You can take either the Focus or the Cross. Both pretty universal when it comes to me and bikes.

Or maybe, Cross a border:

Probably should stick it in front of a church cross though.

I've got a Surly Karate Monkey, and I live around the corner from a Chinese takeaway called Hot Kung Fu which has a vaguely martial arts inspired monkey as a logo... is that too much of a stretch sensei?

Kung Fu ain't gonna cut it. I want Miyagi-san coming out of his dojo or a you in a zoo enclosure...

We have matching bikes / dents

Accepted. Proceed to Level 2.

Repost(ish). Unless you're also a Moulton, this needs more personal input and less googling.

Accepted but with a verbal warning that you'll have to smooth over with a couple of pints later on.

I humbly challenge the repost allegation as they are two different manufacturers with the same surname.

Unless you're also a Moulton, this needs more personal input and less googling.

Well I own a Moulton AM2, that is about as far as it goes.

I was enjoying the mental challenge. I'll leave Dave Yates the framebuilder with a Dave Yates bicycle, and Brompton folder outside Brompton Hospital, to others.

My other bike is an Eclipse Countryman tourer, which is going to be pretty challenging for the first word, unless I just go find a bumkin to match the second word.

Just waiting for my partner to come home with her Charge Plug.

Yeah, posting every custom builder in front of their own bikes will just end up with me stalking you home one day and eating all your Nutella every time you buy a fresh jar, but the whole time you'll suspect nothing and blame your partner or kids. Eventually, after a year or two or three, they'll have enough and leave you and once you've given up on life and you're just sat in your pants wondering what happened to all the Nutella, then all the empty jars will start reappearing one by one, each containing a headbadge from one of the custom builders...

Right, I think I’ve addressed all the issues in my previous picture, except for the musician from U2.

Here is a GT Edge Aero, on the edge of the boundary layer air curtain in an aero facility (disused wind tunnel), balanced on the edge of an Aero. I’m alright with a mint Aero aren’t I?

That one should be pretty simple but if someone got theirs in front of say a large Tesla coil mid air disCHARGE I'd jump you up a grade.

You've just passed four gradings and are now a red belt.

Sensei is most pleased.

forum trip to jonny69's workplace!

Photos of actual professional cyclists or framebuilders with their eponymous bikes should be discouraged in this thread. Unless there's an unusual reason for them being in the same picture. Or if you took the photo or can share a fun fact.

Otherwise we'll end up with pages of this:

Exactly.

Love me a bit of Boardman, but that's what Twitter is for.

I'd suggest a picture of your own bike with the eponymous builder or sportsperson would be ok - if it's a photo with the builder on pickup that's easy mode, but if you're photobombing them at the Tour or whatever that's legit...

Yes, agreed. Now, someone post a frog on a Frog
