I've been on the prowl for a while and when 2 complete sets just came up, timing was killing me. When the other came up, I contacted him and moved on it. Now I'll have too many to try to bring so I'll need a new plan to try to transport more compact to fit everything. Luckily this show is relatively close to where I live.

I can look at what you are thinking. Send me some scans.

+1 for the freestyle comp. Is the obstacle course part of the freestyle comp and if it is do you have to use the course? How is best in show decided?

No shark tank?

Man, hate the date.  Missed out last year and going to miss out this year too.  Going to be doing the Bike MS ride in GA that weekend.

I have Shingles right now, but hope to not have them by the time the show is here.  This is putting me behind schedule on my GT and George Jr projects. Hard to even look at the bikes dealing with the irritation and pain. I have no plan for what I am going to do with these bikes, but plan to have at least one ready. I want to hear more about the ramps and other obstacles. Will the obstacles be out the whole show? Meds are licking in and thoughts are jumbling, so I am shutting down.

In the past, they've gotten there at least by 7am, but I'd say more like 8am is a good time.

Question about survivors. 

What constitutes a survivor?   IS a bike that is built today using survivor parts considered a survivor?  Or is this strictly bikes that are completes from whatever year that they are from?

thanks for the answer.......Although I guess it varies from show to show based on what the organizer wants.

for us it really depends on the rarity of the Survivor. You pull up with a super clean JMC with original dry-rotted tires we would like that better than you coming in with some fresh Duro tires. However, we do allow newer tires,cable,pads, etc. on Survivor builds(extra points with the judges if they are era correct..)

Another bumpin day
I'm getting ready for this one. Hopefully largest display from me at a show yet. Albeit if I can get a trailer to get the stuff up there.

That's what I've been trying to do is sell off parts, but dang it's for another project which is top secret until the big reveal at the show.
Buy a push mower, $150 at the most. Of course I've got 5.5 acres where I live, ridin mower all the way!!!!
