I just wanted to add to this thread
I think botm is a great idea, enjoyed looking at it, but i can shed light on why some people may not vote:
Me, i know so little about other bikes especially retro ones, how would my voting criteria be fair?
Would i vote for nicest paint job (probably), or best condition, or oldest bike in good condition, or a very occasional bike id heard of?
I certainly wouldnt know what is a good build, or well respected bike, or what components they have. Wouldnt know which i would or wouldnt like to ride. Wouldnt know which rare bikes are difficult to maintain or refurbish to this level.
Id likely be saying "that looks nice" which would seem quite superficial and probably not very fair.
So great thread, enjoy it, but dont feel comfortable/qualified to vote. So please anyone taking part in this thread do not lose heart if the voting numbers are low, it doesnt mean the thread isnt appreciated.
