ALLLRIGHTY!!! 10 Years, 7 Months ago  
got back from the show at faro at 4am after a 9 hour, 800km night ride, with all those kms done with a silly grin on my face.

THE CHOP TOOK BEST CHOP IN THE SHOW!!!!!!

the owner took the bike up on stage alone. he wanted me with him, but i said no, it was his moment for fulfilling his dream.

photos will follow, including a couple of WILD roadies from the show

Congrats you Lucky Limey.

It's a killer and you deserve the win. As the creator of the bike you deserve to be up there too .... stop being so modest.

Looking forward to the pics.

I understand you reason for not going up there but you should have anyway. You earned it and deserve it.

Erizo - Good job. Unless you're already famous in your region of the world, a bike that you built, winning a show, can do wonders for your career as a builder. I fully understand and appreciate your modesty (a dying breed you are), but you put together one HELL of a machine. I hope the owner at least mentioned your name, or your name is located somewhere (color matched of course), on the bike so that folks can look and say &quot;who is that builder?&quot;. American builders who've claimed their fame on TV don't let a bike leave their presence until a bit of face time is granted.<br><br>Post edited by: Tbone21, at: 2007/07/23 18:25

That's so funny.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Interesting style of Roadies over there.

another update

we got a double!

this weekend at a rally in talervera de la reina, we took best in show and best bike chosen by the public.

didn´t get photos as i had to go early, and i also missed out on hitting a raffle for 50 euros as i wasn´t there

the owner is well chuffed!
