i am done but not without a few new grey hairs

Grey hairs I've had for year, it's only been during this build off that I've accepted that I have a receeding hairline. Dang Murray. :mrgreen:

My bald Uncle always joked.
WHen you lose some hair up front it means your a thinker.
When you lose some hair in the back it means your a lover.
When the two meet it means you think your a lover.

I am almost at that point after this build. Next time I will start sooner than 29 days before the deadline.

Haha, never heard that, it's great.

OK, for those of you who have finished, did you find it hard to believe that you were done? For me I just sat there by the bike trying to figure out what still had to be done or what I'd forgotten, then I walked inside kind of scratching my head like "did that really just happen?"

HA! I just ran out of time....I coulda kept building and building and building....

I couldn't have without starting to break rules, plus as I add paint or clear, I only go back to those parts if there was a mistake. I don't like repainting. Notice how so much of my later stuff was raw steel. haha

Here's another problem. First you try and get your bike "just right". Now you want to have the BEST finished thread you can have....That's just as bad as building the bike! I've EDITED and added or changed pics about four times in the last two days. This bike building thing is just one headache after another! :roll: :lol:....I gotta take up Knitting.....


:lol:

i must have taken 75 pics and never did get one that would enable you guys to "see" what i see when i look at the bike.

if that makes any sense..... :? :mrgreen:

I know the feeling, I need to photoshop a bunch of hearts floating around my bike and a double rainbow in the background. :lol:

I might use that in my sig if that's cool with you. Slightly follicly challenged myself.

I dealt with my separation anxiety by drinking a beer. :) But I hear you. Despite not having had enough time to spend on my build, I still wish I'd been able to spend a little more.

Hey,

This is the first RRBBuild off final that I watched closely but...
I think the amount of cool bikes in cool pics posted in such a short time is phenomenal!
It's like opening your favorite mag and saying "This is the best issue ever!"
Congratulations to everybody!
Thanks
