If I enter my bike will be called "Polish Panther".

If you enter and your bike can do what the car does, I want to take it for a cruise.

Chad, I'm guessing a Panther frame is involved, and some possible heritage? :wink1: I am busy with the finishing touches on the BACK40 bike shed. Had the first 'happy hour' out there last night when the temps finally broke 70 in 2016. Mulling over ideas for BO-11.....this is my new think tank.....

Thou hast an artful eye, my beer guzzling theater denizen! This is actually a mixed media piece; burlap and fabric squares glued to a masonite board and then the squares painted with an acrylic chaulk with a design painted over the top. BUT, the intent was to create a "stained glass" effect. One of my mt bike racing buddies and good friend did this as an art student 20 yrs ago in college.

Well The Panther is probably not the kind of Panther you're thinking of.....and neither is the polish...:)

My favorite car. 1969 Lola Can Am car somebody converted into a street machine.

It was in Road & Track Mag Apr 1984 issue. I had the cover taped to the mirror on my dresser while I was in high school.

In the hours preceding the build-off, a new sub-forum will magically appear, into which entry threads for the build-off may be posted.

I don't think you need to put the name of the build off in the title for the big build off. I think Luke just does that for the MBBO because there are different classes.

Last year was my first big build off. It's an excellent time. Big big fun.

I'm stoked. The weather is great and I'm anxiously awaiting my first wave of parts to arrive on Santa's big brown square sleigh....:cool2:
