Unbelievable quality and originality. Mine should be removed as it is really not in a class with all the others. My heart wasn’t in it but this build off did make me finally finish. I entered once before and didn’t finish so there’s that at least.
To finish first , you must first finish . You got there , and I certainly wouldn't say no if someone offered me that bike . It's a smart bike, up against a lot of other smart bikes . It's really like choosing a favourite child, voting , it's really really hard to leave anyone out of it cos we all know what goes in .
 
I cast a lot of votes this year as there were some stellar bikes in the contest .
I look at would I ride it how much work went into it physical and creative then you need to come up with a balance between those things somehow .
Some of the bikes I liked the best were simple clean builds but showed a lot of style .
There was also some very cool class 2 bikes (man I wish I could weld ).
All the builds were great and good entertainment take a pile of parts and make something cool .
 
It's always tough to pick what bikes to vote for, but just think, up until a few years ago, everyone was limited to JUST THREE VOTES!!!!
 
WOW:13: Some excellent builds in here,a great turnout I must say. Need another cuppa before I scroll back and vote. Well done to all builders who entered and completed. Hope to see most of you in the winter build-off.

For years I have kept the 3 vote policy,-I know make it tougher on myself. Hmmm have to rethink if I continue or go to a max vote of 5.

We missed you in the BO, Funk! Hope all is well with you. RaT oN~!

I’m there! Let’s do it!
 
I had to step away from my hobbies during most of August while life played a wicked game of whack-a-mole with me and I missed the run to the finish. So many great builds and after scrolling through the bikes many times I still can't seem to narrow it all down. Outstanding work all you Ratters!
 
... some very cool class 2 bikes (man I wish I could weld )....

You can do it! You should do it! People scoff, but i like my flux set up, cheap, quick and dirty. Small and easy to put away. On balance against its flaws. I am sure other love their set up too.
 
I try to vote at quickly as possible and with my gut.

If I vote with my head no one would get a vote because of analysis paralysis or everyone would get one because they all deserve it
I tried to vote with my gut, but it pushed too many keys, and my wife shouted "git yer stomach off the table!"

Stiff competion, how to decide now...
 
Just an FYI...

When building the polls we had entry "RPM1" listed in both Class 1 and Class 2. It took me an hour to build the Class 1 poll and I didn't realize the problem until after I had already posted it and people started voting. The two choices to resolve the issue would be to delete the poll and start over or create a work around.

The work around chosen was to keep #45 on the list, but give it no entry name or builder. The fact that this happens to match with President Trump's election number is an unfortunate coincidence and was totally unintentional.
