You're starting to look a little whipped now Mattson. Over ten points in it.

What can I say? I'm only allowed one vote.

We down here in the Hurricane Dark Side have a bit of a rep for block voting to help our mates out. Maybe at last the other guys have got their act sorted as well.

But, you must frequent the 0.6 side, drum up some support from there.

I think Matti has given up - thrown in the towel, chucked in the sponge, given up the ghost and even stopped caring!!

Dedication to the campaign is what is needed.

Oh, well. There's always next month. Bring back a Hurricane I say

Cheers, SB

Well, not exactly given up but I have spent all my straws on this one, I did send a few PM:s for votes only to get replied like "sorry, JNS beat you to it"... I must say he does deserve it though but I do wonder where he pulled all those votes almost overnight!

...but I do have to admit that there has been so much things afoot here, me having to buy two new cars in a month since my wife totaled hers, rearranging my funds accordingly, and trying to keep my company standing through the difficult new year, I haven't had much energy do go vote-begging (or welcoming much newcomers for that matter...)

But on the sunny side, since the Triumph project is being delayed indefinetely now until I can scrape up more money and time to continue it when my wife heals from the crash, it's starting to look like I'm having another CBR season ahead of me and if the weather continues to be this warm the spring is coming at least a full month ahead!

Thanks for the support everyone, I might just try again later in the spring/summer!

It was a good tilt at the title Matti.

To win - and I don't personally condone emailing for votes (my feeling is it does not support the 'spirit' of the competition - purely IMHO) - you have to stay in the public eye for the month of the competition.

September 2012 I got 40 votes without emailing anyone.

'Sell' the worth of voting for your bike - and have fun doing it

Next time you'll blitz them.

Cheers, SB

Fair comment Matt, we all have our lives to get on with.

Me; I just want to go and out and snag a couple of those MFCC challenges, but I find myself strangely polishing up the front brake caliper carriers (because I have the front wheel off, awaiting delivery of a new front tire)

Do I like working on the bike, just as much as riding the bike???

Still pondering that, will report back at a later date.

Glad you're not replacing the back one TK,

It's done bugger all mileage since last year!!
And I do think it might be the former in your penultimate sentence.
Cheers, SB
