Bigplinky:
At Bournemouth 2005 they had a catagory called "Worthy" which was open to all bikes restored or survivor which had a story to tell. It gave bikes which have been lightly restored a chance to win a prize. My bike is original chrome with repro decals and a mix of old and new parts I would class the frame a survivor as I've had it from new and it ain't been refinished (and if I could have got new decals 20 years ago it would have had them then) but the over all bike is restored / rebulit

All the above is just an excuse to post a pic  :LolLolLolLol:
