correct me if im wrong but theres a 20bike tie for last, all with 7 votes, thats awesome, its not really last when u have 19 people tied with you! and with this competition, being in the finished catagory is wicked cool! congrats to everyone!

As a proud part of the 30% that tied with 7 votes, I want to commend the other 19 builders for beating out the 67 bikes that did not make it in by the deadline. Congradulations on your fantastic builds.

Thanks, Steve. Without you we would not be pushing the bounderies of bicycle building.
 
somehow, in the last few minutes, the top two bikes got enough votes to push me out of my happy position of having 2% back into only having 1%! thanks alot guys! :roll:
:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Hmmm....... too late to cast a vote...funny thing; I wonder what the statistical odds are of a 19 way tie for last place, where all the last place bikes have 7 votes?? I'd say its a safe bet some creative admining took place! LMFAO!!
 
going into this years buildoff i had 2 goals. one was to try to crack the top 10,my fall back goal was to at least double the 13 votes i got last year! and i was truly stoked to get those 13 votes! so to manage a 3rd place showing has been overwhelming to say the least! congrats to bighit and fenderhole,im sure this has been the longest week of their life....and in slow motion! and a huge shout out to jeff[simpleman],for slapping us in the face with a real rat bike and knocking some sense back into us. your bike was the real deal! and thank you steve for being a principal to 5000 unruly kids!
 
So.... whats the next build?

I wanted to take the time to congratulate our winners. Fantastic builds guys, you must be so very proud.

And to the rest of you guys and gals, congrates on a job well done. This was my first buildoff, and i'm very honored to be a part of it you. Saw some incredable bikes, and you have all inspired me.

Thx again guys, and congrates to our winners!
Don't get much more fun than this.
I do have a booby prize for last place, but it looks like i'm gonna have to arrange a bit of a showdown.

:)

so it wasn't the last minute push, it was the last minute fight for the seven vote runoff. :shock:
I apologise to you top guys, it's you 7 voters that I'm peeved with now! :lol: :lol:
 
Thanks to all those that voted for Elgin Old Army.

I enjoyed doing this build off.It'll be harder next year(Scotts already in the lab I hear)
I also liked reading the post and why you voted as you did.
So will be lookin forward to next year.And all the great bikes created here.----frameteam2003
 
next year I'm building a girls middleweight! hats off to hotrodjen, kicked my rear fair and square! :mrgreen:
 
a huge congrads to the winners it takes a lot to get to the top of this stacked feild of bikes and you do deserve it. this was the first year where the bikes i voted for were nowhere near the top but thats cool i like what i like lol wait till next year. i needed to take a year off from the build off to rest up and get my own life in somewhat order. and to those who were further down in the order dont let it eat you up it has done just that to me in the past and if anything is proof that it is not a bad thing the next year i came back with the galt town hooligan. i have always felt that the main goal of this site is not only to provide a place for us bike nuts to show off our bikes, swap stuff, even cry on each other's shoulders every once and awhile. it has always been about progression for me personally pushing the edge of the hobby and trying to push that edge of being different with out falling over that edge. well done to all i cant wait for next year
 
Congratulations to all three winners! This build off has been fun :D All the bikes were brilliant! Thankyou so much to the people who voted for ' The Grady Rocket ',
I really appreciate it.I'm already thinking about a build for the next one :mrgreen:
 
Congratulations to the top three! Congrats to everyone that finished. Thanks to all of you that voted for Cpuff! Some cool bikes in this buildoff! Thanks Steve for providing this site! Thanks!!!

This was so back and forth every day I can't believe it. That little engine had me all the way. I just couldn't pull away until today. I can find something in every bike I like and would love to use on my next build. As a matter a fact I have told some of you that I will be doing just that :wink: .

As a noob I am honored to be voted as a ratrodbikes.com build off winner. Rest assured I will cherish the trophy and title and do nothing to disrespect it. As for the bike, it is going nowhere but on tour or where ever Super Villains go at night.

I am 3 bikes deep now so I got to get back to work. SuperVillains don't die they multiply.

Bighit
Thanks to Steve for making this site for us to come together.
 
As always the RRB did not fail to impress and motivate many... A big congrats to bighit and the others.. I think its really about how much fun you can have... And as a group I bet we have more fun than just about any :mrgreen:
 
I'm a bit surprised "HOMETOWN HERO" finished where it did. So many awesome bikes. Thanks for the votes!
