Glynnyboy:
I understand what snav is saying and i suppose there is no way of asking it without it coming across as an insult. You did a cracking job on that neil i just think it's a bit of a pitty.
I haven't looked into the full rules of botm and boty but in my opinion to enter you would have to own the bike and have completed it yourself. That would really count this out because when the voting goes in the bike belongs to someone else.
This would have got my vote for both comps and putting your finished build in there and the positives the guys give back is part of the love of bringing oldschool bmx back to life.
I personally don't feel i could vote for it now. I know it's probably no big deal to you neil and i don't mean any disrespect i just feel it's a bit of a shame that's all 8)
All this said i do enjoy seeing what you get up to and no doubt you do give everyone something to talk about ;) ;D :daumenhoch:

neil just gets a buzz out of building bikes and once they are finished he cant just sit there looking at them...
he needs to be building/sourcing and looking for something to do!!! took me a while to get me head round it aswel...
ive become good friends with him just through little boys bikes at the end of the day and i can tell you its not just about money..
i can honestly say everytime ive been round his house he's got his sleeves rolled up polishing , de-anodising or on the pc searching the web...
he lives, breathes and sleeps os bmx... which he knows he shouldnt but cant help it
may sound like am licking his hoop but its the truth
the "rupe" tribute means more to him than the "leary" which is mad but its coz he built it from scratch... a labour of love so to speak :smitten: :smitten:
i can also see snav's point by the way... its the way it looks
lets just see whats next eh :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

Neil's point is he can do what ever he likes, if he builds and then sells to build thats up to him. The challenge is to build more than to keep and in a way thats what i like to do. We all have our reasons for doing this pretty expensive hobbie none more right than the other. To have a personal attack on someone cos they sell and build is just stupid but that is how this site gets sometimes, just roll with the ride is my deal.
Peace all :)
