I had offered to donate a copy of my book "Old Bikes", since the contest started. The latest revision has a new chapter on racing old bikes. It will be signed.

Pray tell, GP, just what would a "signed" copy be worth. Do you think it will go up substancially upon your passing? (god forbid)

Pray, tell, what are YOU contributing?

The winner can certainly refuse to accept it if he wishes to.

God help us all.

My vote.....and a non commercial response.

Can I get an Amen?

I'm CONTRIBUTING it, not selling it.

Note that I have not listed anything for sale on this board for some months.

Give it a rest...

(for what it's worth, I also instituted the idea for this contest, as the build threads have always been my favorite part of the forums)

The constant "hammering" on GP has gotten REALLY OLD!! please stop it.

Vince

Well, guys...

I have cast my vote but it wasn't easy. There is a lot of good work displayed in the bikes this year and a nice variety of results. I am probably overly emotional about such a simple thing but I think you are all winners. Regardless of resutls, may your Nortons bring you years of pleasure.

Nice work guys, no losers here

My vote is in, each contestant should be proud, and I got some pretty good idea's for my own build from them too. Cj

Am so envious of you guys as I have so far to go.
all in all an excellent bunch of entries, and I have really enjoyed seeing the pictures and reading up on the history of each the restorations or rebuilds.
I also think that the preliminary results should not be shown so we are all in suspense until the end of the competition.
Thanks Guys.

He's going to have to fit Norvil pipes next though .

Haven't posted for a few months but I just had to log in and cast my vote.
All of them look very nice, unfortunately there can only be one winner.
