I'm resisting for a while , apparently I have chores n stuff to do .

I put this on the end of my thread , but i think more folks will see it here and it bears repeating ... Spose I had better say something, I've been wanting to say something , just I don't know what something to say . Im a guy in a garden shed in Slough UK ( anyone who isn't familiar with...

Congratulations to the winners , what am I saying , you are all winners . This has been entertaining, and if anything I would say class 1 is harder in some ways to pull some crazy out of the bag . Well done everyone :)

And congrats to you too sir :) Spose I had better say something, I've been wanting to say something , just I don't know what something to say . Im a guy in a garden shed in Slough UK ( anyone who isn't familiar with Slough ...and I can't blame you , If you say you are from Slough, folks tend to...

I would have put money on Cyrus winning too if I'm honest I genuinely thought I might get a honerable mention, if I was lucky Thanks though , I'm a bit blown away by the response and indeed the warmth and encouragement you have all shown this Jonny come lately ,Thankyou

We have had a chat , the offer is on the table , I'm happy to help :)

I'm seconding that , the blue bike is cool as it has a reason , Its planting that seed of imagination . In many ways my old man was rubbish , but inadvertently by being a skinflint and particularly rubbish at taking an interest in me he planted the seed. There's the tools , you broke it so...

Completely new , clean slate , just start the hunter gathering thing as I find bits .

Once again , thanks for all the positive words folks , It really means loads to me . It makes the shed full of filler dust over every surface , the weeks of rubbing down and finding more bits of rubbing down , the Metalflakes that got everywhere , house , car , they even somehow found their way...

I've already got a completely different idea forming for the next one...different direction , different fun :)

I've got loads to do , I keep getting drawn in though . I built the E Bike out of a vintage cyclomotor frame thats been hanging about for ages . Been doing the bit of DIY widened the garden path ( check out the soakaway drain ) Been puppyproofing the garden for the arrival of this little lady ...

Fantastic choices , Bobby's Pink Panther bike especially, really glad that's got something coming , cos he's earned it in spades

To finish first , you must first finish . You got there , and I certainly wouldn't say no if someone offered me that bike . It's a smart bike, up against a lot of other smart bikes . It's really like choosing a favourite child, voting , it's really really hard to leave anyone out of it cos we...
