BotM January 2017 now taking entries

[Cheshire1980]

So far its a two horse race between your Clockwork and the Brodie for me.

Just hope we get two votes & I don't have to choose between them.[/quote]

Thanks for the positive comments, really don't think my Clockie has any chance in this, but if I get a few votes in this then am happy with that. At the end of the day I enjoy entering a bike in to the competition so it gets seen and enjoyed by all, that's my purpose in this. Its one of my favourite sections on retrobike, looking at all the glorious entries each month.

Anyway.. It reminds me, need to get a proper thread up for my Clockwork.. a job for next week I think ..

Re:

It's not as shiny now, is it? Didn't you mash the saddle?

I like the Orange, but what on Earth is happening with that saddle? Don't recognize the design, is it meant to look like that? !

Not meant as an insult, just looks strange compared to the rest of the bike

Yeah I rode it. Not really sure what your point is.
