BoTM Bike of The Month timetable and suggestions

[Y282]

Was thinking this. As a serial mug for cheap, low end stuff that no-one wants how about a cheapies only contest.

Something like bikes that were sold for less than a certain figure when new. Possibly allow for some mods but overall bike (frame & forks at the least) must be original.

That makes every month a special month

We had "steel is real" month recently, perhaps we could do the same with aluminum?

Singlespeed bikes?

Or maybe obscure brand / model month!

How about a before and after special month showing bikes that have been brought back to life or undergone serious restoration

I know - how about Orange AluO - with an October 92 datestamp - in matt silver only

Not sure how everyone's start to the years has gone so far, but perhaps we could have a "Fabulous February",
with a "Bring what you brought Before" BOTM,

Whilst the BOTY 2023 is running, why not allow entrants to post bikes they have entered before in February for a special month,
(obviously no previous winners), the only rule is you have to still own it....?

Would be cool to see everybody have a go with, as many people who can enter as possible.

Just a thought.

It's probably been suggested - but what about a 'NOS' month or a 'museum quality' month? I am new to all this - so apologies if this is already been done or doesn't make sense!
