         Got my vote cast.  Spikeybike's is definitely a unique style all it's own and I've got to give him credit for his efforts but, I'm more in favor of Paul's bike myself. :)

             Good Luck to both (even though we know only one can win, unless we have a tie.

                                   Later on, Bill :) ;)

My vote is in!  I've got to hang out on the fuzzy side. Paulages' bike is cool and really well done, but you just can't beat the uniqueness of Spikeybike's bike.

Both fine examples of outstanding effort and unique vision, and Spikeybike has my vote.

i forgot i was in the race here...should i disclose all of the skeletons in my closet, or should i wait for the media to uncover them?  ;D i can say with absolute certainty that i have never taken any gifts or donations from any corporate lobbyists (motorcycle industry: PM me if you want to start... ;)). and if i win, i promise there will be a chicken in every pot, and a CB in every garage.

That's a pretty heavy promise, there, Paul. (I hope the chicken industry is ready for that...)   ;D

are you suggesting someone seeking your vote would ever offer false promises? i've never heard of such a thing.

Spikey, it's only a matter of time, man. I have voted for your bike every time, but you've had some stiff competition each time, too.

Well done Paul. Nice looking ride!!
