Ok, this is the last Bike of the Month for 2018 so make it count! Next month, we will be voting for Bike of the Year.

Let's see some stellar nominations!

Thanks guys, but I respectfully decline. It's been nominated four times now (in the voting 3X). That's good enough for me.

Agreed that your bikes are VERY worthy. That said, BOTM Rule 2. User must be nominated by another member, no self nominations.
http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php/topic,8929.0.html

What's the story with these bikes? There is no build thread for them. I think members would really like to see their backstory.

Sorry Scottly, Beemerbum's K1 was nominated and voted on for BOTM September 2018, so it is not yet eligible again. BOTM Rule 4: "If a bike was voted upon in a BOTM and did not win, it may not be re-nominated for 3 months." http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php/topic,8929.0.html

Unfortunately late by about 5 days. See Rule 3: http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php/topic,8929.0.html

Don't worry. There's next year (since this is the last Bike of the Month for 2018).
