BoTM April 2012 - No ShimaNO Special - Nominations Please

[eastcoaststeve]

Nice bike Steve.......
I think you just trumped me....

Thanks Tim, it really is one of my favorites, and it rides as nice as it looks...I just feel a bit weird entering it in BOTM though, as I didn't build/restore it myself, merely giving it a good loving home.
I'm sure I'm not the first one to post a bike as aquired, but as you've seen from my collection, I really do enjoy rescuing the lost causes...this one obviously doesn't fit the mold.
Guess if it gets any votes I'll have to share them with Matt .
And like I said before, I still think your Ritchey is a stunner...god, I love that sky camo paint.


Here's the original build link for anyone who is curious...Matt really did a bang up job with it.
