Last year (2015), 177 votes were cast for BOTY.

The prior year (2014), 160 votes were cast for BOTY.

So far this year, only 101!  ::)

I'm not sure what to do to get people to vote, but greater voter participation helps to demonstrate that the winner reflects the opinion of forum as a whole.  It also shows the contestants that you give a hoot.  Please make sure to vote by the end of the month!

Thanks guys! Super stoked with winning BOTY 2016 as being on this forum for years prior to finishing my bike inspired me so much!  All the projects on this site are fantastic and each one has a story to tell.  Keep up the hard work everyone and I hope pieces of my bike inspire the next project starter.

Cheers!
