It's not REALLY going that strong my friend, plenty people voting but getting nominations is hard going.
A few months back we had one bike on its own but the bike and the owners circumstances made it worthy of not being denied the win.
And then we had a month with just two nominated bikes from the same owner, it proved a hard one to bet on. ;D ;D ;D ;D
Nice to see you still looking in.

Thanks guys for the consideration! Mine is a stocker 73 with reasonably fresh paint but original otherwise as far as I can tell. Bill rode it and didn't die so I guess it's all right... ::) I know I like it. 8)

I'd like to nominate Jerry's K2

Wow - wasn't expecting that!  Thanks for the nomination, I'm honored, but will have to respectfully decline.
 
It was nominated last year for the BOTM (finished a distant 4th out of 4 bikes   ;D ;D ;D)

Its only fun the first time.......    Maybe the next project (now back to craigslist to find it ;))

Looks like there is a good bunch of bikes for this months contest all ready.

Thanks!
