Bike of the Month timetable and suggestions thread

You have spoken and I have listened! I'll keep this at the top of the page and will update special month topics as good suggestions come in, and are seconded. Here's a chance to have your say! It's apparent that topics that are in any way subjective should be avoided so try and bear that in mind...

Wasn't a suggestion as much as a reference to the original post which says now here's a chance to show off the builds you finished during the holidays. Suppose it'd have been a bit more interesting than just a normal month, but ah well.

You're such a trouble maker.

Ahem 'Guru', not trouble maker.

You've been brainwashed into the cult. Guru?

Brainwashed, no I am the greeter, I am the door keeper to the path of true enlightenment. Imlach is the Guru...

Imagine taking the time to write that here and still not put it as a suggestion in the suggestion thread

Happy new year all! Now it's time to show us the builds you've been finishing off over the holidays. Just a normal month, so anything goes - well anything that sits within the large list of rules anyway!

Useful for the poll if you can structure your nomination as follows:

username's Year Manufacturer Model , e.g. @al's 1995 weird bouncy thing
Image(s) MAXIMUM OF 2
Finally please include a link to your machine in the relevant Reader's Bikes section. If you don't have an existing post now is the time to add one with as much detail as you like!
Link to all the rules http://www.retrobike.co.uk/wiki/BoTM_Rules

Nominations thread will run for the entire month of January. Entries submitted after January 31st will not be counted. The poll will go up shortly after the nominations close and will run for a week.

What if a bike is sold while on this list and not before ? Is it still a valid entry? Was thinking of entering mine but it’s on sale - not sold
