This one.
It now exists exactly as it was when new - frame and forks. It's a 1999 CAAD 3 Martyn Ashton Volvo Team Replica.
I stripped it to build my Pompino, transferring the saddle, seatpost and front brake to the new bike. Everything else was sold or binned.
I'll keep it because we've been through so much together (I rode it almost daily from brand new in 1999, until March 2013). Might rebuild it one day but tbh it's a nice thing to look at, so it can sit indoors for a bit.
