The Poles are now open. Good luck everyone and congratulations for finishing!

 

[Captain Awesome]

Thanks to OJ for all the heavy lifting to compile and build these

I would rock @GuitarlCarl 's TT bike in a local Duathlon any day! (Standing ovation)

 

[Wildcat]

A race between all the entrants would be great.

 

[Slow-Rider]

A race between all the entrants would be great.

how do those that built more than one in a class. ride more than one in same race?

 

[Wildcat]

I figured an entrant was a builder, and an entry a bike. It would also provide an excuse: "I could have won with the other bike!"

 

[DesmoDog]

I'd ride the '56 Racer because, you know, RACER. But I'd still lose. Cuz I'm old. And out of shape. But I wouldn't finish last! Probably. Well maybe.

With most of us, it'll have to be a downhill race with refreshments readily available at the bottom.

the skinny build off is my favorite one out of the three, I think because these builds are closer to my idea of a skinny bike in regards to the look, good luck everyone

Congratulations to @Jude Ephesus @Wildcat & @Endlesschain for receiving the most votes & everyone for their hard work on some great bikes! Well done!

 

[Jude Ephesus]

Thanks to everyone here, in all categories! Had a ball and loved following all these builds.

I can’t wait until we do this all again this summer!

 

[Endlesschain]

Thankyou to all who voted for my entry I'm stoked to be third, I wasn't sure of the reception I would get as one man's 1930's track bike of beauty is another man's 'meh its just an old rickety bike, truly guys thanks for the votes, I love this bike and glad alot of you guys do to
Well done everyone

 

[Jude Ephesus]

I definitely voted for shadow speed: beautifully clean build; it looks super simple, but I know better! Great build!

(I loved the strip dragger too!)

I'm very proud of strip dragger and it will stay in one piece

Congrats to Jude and his Red Rider. That's the same model bike I rode from Tampa to Jacksonville in 1978. I'd offer to buy it if I was in the states.

This is the highest in the voting any bike of mine has ever been, and I've been here since 2009. The Wright Special will get displayed in the shop as if it were really a vintage bike.

Ruby will actually get ridden frequently, being the fastest in the stable.

BnB is proof I didn't vote for any of my own bikes. That's the lowest number of votes in the whole 3 classes of competition! Not even a mercy vote. That's okay. This bike may or may not stay in one piece, although it rides well.

Thanks for the kind words wildcat! I once did a ride across Florida the other way…. Titusville to Crystal River! (On a vintage Peugeot)

your builds are amazing. Honestly, I’m stunned red rider did so good….. it was clean, but that thing is about as basic as basic gets! Even my color choices lacked imagination! HA!

in any regard, I did do a poll prior to the start where I gave 3 bike build options and without question, the field wanted to see the traveler built. -so I did it!

I will probably do a similar poll for the summer build off…. I’ve got 2 or 3 bike prospects, and a lot of build options or genres, I guess, but I don’t really have a preference for any of them as they are all fun to me!

let the crowd pick, I guess!

I had no idea how much people liked total maggot bikes here, & when I look at the nice bikes that were absolutely humiliated in the voting, I can only think “Boaty McBoatface”.

Oh, I am sorry Mattie!
I’ll try harder not to upset you in the future.
