Ard got my vote, not because he works for us nor because we helped in a little way with the build, but to me his bike represents to a large extent the nature of DTT. That 500 is really sweat and well executed and I do have a soft spot for thumpers and I know how much work went into it, but to me it is a pristine example of a genre'. On the other hand, there is Ard's bike. Doesn't quite fit any mold, shows a lot of creativity and the ability to accomplish so much with so little. After all its a dam Virago!! Really need to be able to think outside the box to accomplish something like that from a virago and lord knows Ard spends a lot of time out side the box.
OH and redbird, thank you for your last post. THe demeaning, belittling, condescending commentary and personal attack does little more than serve as an affirmation of the true nature of you character.
