Bike of the year 2006

[billstup]

Right start entering your bikes for Bike of the year 2006, we want a photo and a breakdown of the parts, but a photo will do if your lazy.

What we`ll do this year is get all the bikes entered, doesn`t matter what it is as there can only be one winner, and we`ll vote on them and the bike with the most votes in its make, haro for instance, will go forward to the final round, and then we can vote on the best of the finalists.

You have untill the 16th December to get your bikes entered, then we`ll start the voting, one bike per member only though, and before you start to get your wife to sign up so you can enter another bike remember that it would split the votes between the bikes and you may end up getting nothing 

Good luck

everything on bike to original spec apart from the tyres and the wheels, when i bought the bike from strongs bmx in 81 i couldnt afford motomags (as an optional extra),so i just had to put them on now as they were my dream wheels, it took over two and a half years to restore and search out the parts as most bits are stamped mongoose items.....
