Maybe the judges were confused?

It’s been sitting there for about 6 months, suffering from my extreme case of bike project ADHD, while my clattery ex500 gets all the attention. (I’m convinced the ex can be a sport touring machine, if I keep throwing parts at it, lol.) Thanks for the motivation, sometimes I forget how great of a bike it was (and will be again) when it’s in a good state of tune.

it looks like a lot of fun too! although i think that i’d wince every time i heard a rock skip off something or splashed through a puddly haha.
