Moondog managed to make an F look good. Well done Moondog, good effort. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

If possible, could my bike be put on the finalist list under my new user name? I've been unable to get on it for 3 weeks now. Tech probs. I'm ready to give up on it.  :'(

Wild paint moondog. Ya know, your original seat looks pretty comfy, but personally I don't like the look. I'll bet its the first thing you ditched. Eventually I'm going solo too.

Wow. We got two bikes really taking a lead here with one winning by just TWO votes! If you guys haven't voted yet get on it. This is a great month of bikes covering many tastes. I would be honored to keep every one of these bikes in my garage. Thanks all for voting and helping to keep this going!

Thanks Sam. No word yet. Hope this isn't confusing anyone. I feel like I'm outta my league anyway. Those bikes are pretty sweet. I like my stuff a little rough around the edges.

I've just checked his profile, he's not been online for a few days, perhaps he is away.
I'm sure he will sort you out on his return.

Well guys, as Justin says, the race at the top for this one couldn't be closer.
The lead has been changing all the way through with no more than two votes between them.
It's going to be a real shame if this one does not end up in a tie.
