Re: Auction Bike
I sent last year's to California. Like the one before it may never be seen again. Kinda disappointing. No builders have stepped up to build one this year. How about you, pick?

Re: Auction Bike
Man, I'd love to, but....... Between work, my job, & largely neglected work around the house, I don't think I can swing it this year. I would be glad to help if anyone else wants to step up.

Re: Auction Bike
There have been two auction bikes built so far, one in 2010 and one in 2011. The bikes were real life versions of the bikes on that years RRB t-shirts. I had the honor of working on the second bike. The parts were donated by members and the proceeds went to Steve (Rat Rod) to support the site.

Re: Auction Bike
I think any old bike that is fixed up cool, with donated parts would be acceptable. The whole concept is to raise some $$ for Steve to help with the site that we all love! Something really radical would be awesome! I am willing to donate powder coating of some parts, but probably not a frame like last year. Shipping back & forth would not be cost effective. Everyone seems to like to watch the progress as it comes together, & suggestions from the members at large is really what makes it interesting to me. On last years bike, we had some great input as well as some awesome parts & lots of labor donated. Thanks to all who participated! We had hoped it would generate more cash (but was I was not dissappointed), every little bit helps & benefits us all!

Re: Auction Bike
There are much better builders here than me, that's for sure. I would love to participate, but I don't see any build time for me until mid-January. Too much work, family, and vacation obligations.

Re: Auction Bike
You got me good. I wasn't around for the first one and I kind of remember the last one. Hopefully someone will kick this one off. I have some cool parts and stuff, so I am game for helping out.

Re: Auction Bike
Yeah, he certainly does
It's hard to "pick" someone to build the auction bike, because a lot of people do great work here :shock: We need someone to volunteer :wink:
