Correct. This starts our transition to moving towards 3 separate 3 month builds per year. That gives us a 1 month break in between each

Did these bikes really come in 10th place? This is so intimidating. The Grocery Getter is genius.

I will vote for any build done by a full time working employee. I entered last years build and had to do something every day on the bike to get it done. My wife is way cool about me doing the build off’s, but did mention that it was taxing on our relationship, due to not spending much time together. Builders with already dialed in plans, and ones with plenty of free time will do well this build. I predict less entries and more DNF’s. I’ll be sitting by and watching the action.

That's exactly what I'm afraid of. With this year's time frame it's exactly in-between major school breaks, so I'll have to build on the upcoming long weekends. Hopefully my family will give me that space...
