I kinda think the "action photo" could be difficult for some... I use all my bikes and they all get dirty! but I tend to ride alone hence no pics of my stunning self :facepalm: on said machinery.
Personally I do tend to look into the build threads (when they are available, which is not always) of the ones that interest me, and it can influence my decisions.

It would be nice to have a budget month so that people without bottomless pockets might have a chance

...and apologies if this should on another thread but;
When the term 'elitest' is bandied around it is not a derogatory term used to describe a 'no expense spared' build on some rare exotica of a frame, rather it is a dig at the people who look down their noses at any bike that isn't...

How about a full suspension month? They never get any love around here. Frankly, they should get some love, have any of you noticed what the mtb world rides now a days? Hint; It's not rigid Ti bikes
The real history of mtb is full suspension bikes. Sorry, flame on....

Ah yes, but then you'd have to specify whether it's XC or DH...
Just a thought for BOTm how about a budget bike one? Sub £200/300? Just a thought as it is lovely to see loads of class bikes sourced with great skill, built up with NOS but how about the bodgers, collectors and skinflints bikes. Part of a great british tradition.

I'd support the retro FS bike theme. Nice idea. Most retro ones would be XC and we could see some lovely Proflex's/AMP/Manitous/Ibis BowTi and that would be good.

I'd like to suggest that John find a replacement for himself as organizer of BoTM. The pumpkin special (Oct) was ridiculous but, Dec 2013 has reached an all time low.
When did BoTM stop being about the bikes?
Come on John, There's dozens of good ideas in this thread. Pick one!
Flame on lads....
