What we have here is an advanced reader's copy of "A Dog in a Hat--An American Bike Racer's Story of Mud, Drugs,
Blood, Betrayal, and Beauty in Belgium" written by Joe Parkin. The book is used, but is in very good shape.

Image

This book goes to the highest ranking bike with a diamond frame. Any debates about what a diamond frame is will be determined by me.* If there is a tie, the book will go to whomever's screen name is last alphabetically. I am cheap, so shipping is to USA only.

Someday this book is sure to be worth...well, nothing. But anyway, it's a good read!



*This is what I consider to be a diamond frame--men's frame, horizontal (or close to it) top tube, no curvy tubes:

Funkme, if you win one of the categories I will personally reimburse the shipping cost incurred by the shipper.

This goes for ANY overseas builder entered in BO7.

Bravo Rg! I will split it with you.

I think Funkme is our only representative from Europe. There are a few Aussies (even FunkMe is Aussie). I wish we had more international builds this year. I think there were 5+ last year.

No, no one has anything against overseas builders. I just have limited funds for extracurricular activities. If expenses go up, then I either reduce the number of prizes I offer or I have to just not do it.

I have another prize coming up involving a brass ball and a brass bunny, but that is dependent on finding them because I have to locate the things yet because I don't remember where I put them.

Don't forget Mr. Cool (very nice diamond frame, and he is running high in the voting) in Switzerland viewtopic.php?f=68&t=60941

I hate to draw attention to his bike, it is pretty nice... :mrgreen:

A Brass Ball and a brass bunny? What happened to the brass monkey? :wink:
Should I even ask? :lol: :lol: :lol:
It's a shame thr isnt more overseas builders,a lot of great builds in germany and netherlands...I guess they must have their own sites...

That would be cool! Maybe for a 20 inch bike with bare metal, 20x3 tires & 2 - 50 cal. bullets on the front forks? Did I say I love pinstriping? :lol: :mrgreen:
