BoTM BoTM May 2025 - Bar end special. It's voting time

I missed that, you're right @benjabbi . Sorry @Matttymm but I'm going to have to pull the Marin

 

[MattiThundrrr]

I hate to be pedantic but one of those has no chain. Is that not against the rules?

Good eye ben. Gotta be consistent

@raidan73 In fairness to @Matttymm the other picture that he entered in the nominations thread did show the bike with the chain on. Perhaps not the preferred pic for the comp, but compliant as far as I can tell.

Thanks Pete. Glad you guys are all here to help me. Now reinstated with the second image

Cool, that's nicely resolved, I felt a bit bad for pointing it out but rules is rules!

No worries there Ben. The first pic must have slipped through Matt's net. I don't think it will have had much influence on the competition. There have been very few votes cast since last night

 

[Matttymm]

Thanks guys. Appreciate the help. Maybe you can all vote for me now it’s reinstated.

Not sure if I’m breaking the rules canvassing votes.

Lava Dome for me, that's where it all started.
My older brother got one for his birthday in '92 exactly like that one. I used to pinch it when he was out, and I was hooked from then on.
Got my first mountain bike the following Christmas.

How dare you! You’d better not be voting for your own? Nobody’s ever done that. Ever.

 

[Matttymm]

Ha. It’s the only way to get a vote these days mate. Anything later than 91 or not a Brodie doesn’t seem to get any kudos.
