Just so everyone knows, the finished area will be locked when the deadline hits, and it will remain locked until the voting thread is up.

Voting thread will take some time to set up, not only do we have a lot more bikes than usual, but I won't have computer access for a couple of hours after the deadline.

It should be up and running before all the USA members wake up for their breakfast though! ;)

I had a bit of a hold up getting back to my computer, working on the voting thread now!

Great build off and a record amount of finished bikes everyone! :thumbsup:

I'm very pleased to have made the Top Ten in this strong and varied field! We could easily have had 3 or more sub-categories in this build off, and the competition would have been just as tough. Kudos to all who crossed the Finished Line!
 
Wow I'm so happy, have entered a few build offs and this is by far my
best result, been making bikes for many years, having talented fellow
bike liking what you do is both rewarding and humbling.

As you can tell I am over the moon, even my wife is stoked! Well done
LTJ a worthy winner on fabrication alone, awesome look as well. Well
done also to all who entered, just some great bikes will revisit them all
down the track for another look!

Aussie bikes 1 & 2 what's with that??????!!!!!!!!

The words 'down under' don't really make sense right now when you're both on top of the world! :21:
 
CONGRAT LUKE and all of the other builders. This may have been one of the best "mini" build offs (if you can call it that), that we have had.
