BoTM Bike of The Month June 2023 - now taking entries (again)

[Jimmy oldskool]

You were absolutely correct. I was referring your responses, and suggesting that you might like a little bit of "alone time"

Can I use the tissues for wiping my tears BEFORE they get offered for anything else!?

A bit of a quiet month ...

Can’t say I’m working on anything even remotely BOTM worthy! And certainly nothing that’ll be finished in time

Cannondale Super V Raven, my dad bought this bike back in 1998 at Cycle City in Raynes Park for £2,500. He then sold it too one of his mates in return for some flight tickets in 2000.

I bought the bike back 20+ years later and it was in a bit of a sorry state spec wise. My dad ran it stock but his mate put some strange parts on it like the Fizik ‘Cowhide’ saddle.

The photos I’ve attached were photographed by the legend that is Geoff Waugh. I can attach some more if needed. I have loads!

Would be pretty cool if I got BOTM with this one as it’s super special and means a lot too me!

Thanks for reading and I hope you guys like the bike

Even my very limited/non existent knowledge of bikes detects something very special here. Don't think I'll be entering the rockhopper.

Only two pictures for each entry unfortunately. Just delete the two you like the least.

Also if you click edit and then on the thumbnails at the bottom click on insert then on full image it will load full size pics up for you.

Not that I want to try to compete with the Potts or the Shockabilly, but remind me again if it's required that a BOTM entry has a 26" wheel diameter?

No, any size you want.
