I figured I might as well start this since someone will.
My everyday ride...
Only took me 5 years to post bike details, but...
1992 Serotta T-Max

Admin Note:
Hey boys and girls how about full discloser on year / brand / model and how long in service.
1991 Trek 970 Singletrack. Got it in 1994 and is my main ride to this day.
1995 Proflex 555 with upgraded Girvin Vector AL fork with Noleen shock. Bought it in 2011 and ride a few times a summer. Always wanted a Proflex back in the day.
2004 Gary Fisher Cake. Used when things are too chunky for the rigid Trek.
2008 Ellsworth Truth put together from a $600 ebay frame and assorted parts, full XTR including wheels. 5000+ miles of Arizona and Utah single track on her since then.
Ok, this is starting to look like a vintage thread. It's time for something new. 26" x 40mm Derby rims with Hadley hubs, DT Swiss Revolution spokes and Sapim Polyax 14mm nips, so they stick out nice and far when the weather gets cold. I'm waiting for a pair of American Classic valves. Build weight is 1690 grams.

I have a 2008 Bauer Bravo
Stock they don't have a much on them, but I have updated the drivetrain to a mix of xt/slx/deore, added formula brakes, EA70 bars, EA90 stem and a WTB saddle. All I want to do is get some Rockshox XC30 forks then it will be complete.
Down the track I want to get into some touring/bikepacking so it will end up with some transient panniers too
2010~11(?) GT Distortion. Found it on ebay and bought it from a gentleman in Huntington Beach area. It's a factory prototype or something. Production models have cable/hose guides under the top tube (mine has none), and external cup on the bottom headset (mine is internal)
2012 Santa Cruz Jackal. Bought the frame for $350 during SC's year-end clearance sale.
