Re:

Lovely bikes guys! Really lovely. Already making me realise that I don't own enough titanium...

Sorry to be a stick in the mud guys but I don't think reserving spaces is very fair. It should be on a first come first served basis. There's still plenty of spaces though so get your entries in now

Also apologies to Radnomad but I've deleted your 1999 Kona as it is far too new

Good job I got my photos sorted :mrgreen:

Yes OK never mind. I though the end-of-line model of a much earlier design might be accepted. Unfortunately there is no BoTM for post '97 bikes - or maybe i missed it. I had little chance of winning anyway among the gorgeous machines already nominated, the standard is high. Good luck all.

I'll have to bow out, I hadn't realised they have to be pre '97.

I'm not sure what year mine is but from what I gather it's about 2003/4.

Definitely a Special though.

Cheers All

I have to agree with my colleagues decision regarding the Kona.

And I'm a Kona fan
