Welcome to another steller month of RBotM competition!

We have a really lovely lineup of entrants this month and it will definitely be hard to pick a winner from this group.

Thanks to all who entered and also to those who keep it going with their support, much appreciated.
Usual rules in that 1 vote per member, poll runs for 5 days with results hidden until the end.

I just can’t get over how box fresh Lackies Sprint is..... absolutely stunning bike.
 
Yeah, but look at those inviting angles of OldTels Continental :) Looks like you could roll it out and do a couple of hundred kilometres very comfortably :)

Re:

1912 Continental for me although I question the backwards toe clip.... :shock:
 
Much as I now love my garage find , and yes it’s both great to look at and to ride. I really like OldTels Continental, the fork angle to the frame, the bars and brakes have a true Post Edwardian look about them. I’d like to take it for a spin, but think I might have to break my ankle ‘ouch’ to fit the right toe clip.

Just been bolted upside down or back to front :) I think with regards to the toe clip.. :?: anyway it’s a class machine for it’s age
 
I am not very knowledgeable about old road bikes, but that 1912 Continental just looks so inviting to ride, love it :cool:
