Default 2nd place in show/shine!
LOL, pretty sad show and shine, but I got second place. Top prize went to a tricked out trike with a $15000 paint job. I argued that his wasn't really a motorcycle, but I couldn't convince them (j/k). He won a new video camera, I got a $25 gift card. Oh well, maybe next time. Was only a few bikes, but I was still surprised to place.

No pics of the show, but I noticed the other day that my pic on here still has snow in the background, so I took some new ones. I'll have a few up when the missus gets back with the camera. Wish I would of had it with me though, you should have seen the paint on that trike. Front to back airbrush grafix.

Lol, I was only joking... Didn't plan on entering, or winning, but they wanted a few more bikes so I threw it up there. I really didn't care either way, my bike isn't a show bike. The trike was a easy choice.

That's like saying a Can-Am is a motorcycle, when it's just a snowmobile on wheels.

Congrats. I agree the try pod should of been in a different class! Its not a motor cycle. Usually shows are broken up by different classes.
