Aloha! John Oliveira sent in his Samson track bike for this week’s Reader’s Rides. Coming in all the way from Hawaii, this gold-flaked beast is part of the TNR crew’s stable.

Check out some more photos from this week’s Reader’s Rides below!

John’s got quite the eye for photography and his taste isn’t so bad either.

Because of its isolation, it’s hard to get track frames in Hawaii but John pieced this together nicely.

The reflection photo is nice…

Keep sending theses in. Included a story about the bike, who you are and why you love it! Just follow these rules:

–Include one drive-side shot: Get down level with your bike and try to capture it all in photograph from the drive-side.

–Include one detail shot: I want to see what makes this bike stand out from the rest! A nice lug shot or maybe a detail component shot would be ideal.

–Resolution: Please! Send me photos at least 800px wide!

–No Crap: Readers want to see beautiful bicycles, not clunkers. No offense to the beautiful beaters of the world!
