Well, I'm done. I did the photoshoot today and what is left to do is to post in the "finished bikes" thread of the build off. Here are some of the pics. I included a riding pic to show that it actually runs. :mrgreen:

The bike is fantastic. The detail and workmanship throughout your build were over the top. Great job.

Thanks for the great comments guys. The rest of the photoshoot is pretty good. Never realized until a few weeks ago that we had a statue of Queen Victoria in town. Thanks for the special award Steve, even though I had nothing to do with it. :mrgreen:

Seeing that bike finished is kind of like listening to Hendrix for the first time.

Awesome Bike!!! I love the graphics you added. I've never seen a CCM before, but they look like they were top quality made!!! Ladies bikes seem to ride better for some reason? I have an old pre-war Elgin ladies lightweight that I've been wondering what to do with. I think you've inspired me to fix it up for the wife to ride. Great Job and you have a beautiful bike!!! Thanks!!!

Don't know if that's good, but coming from you I am sure it is. Thanks Rick. :D Thanks for all the great comments. A special mention for Korporal, that Hendrix reference is over the top. :mrgreen:
