MCN Built in Britain 2013 Competition

Post by Mr Jones »

Hi Guys,

The Bonneville I built up has made it through to the voting stage of the MCN Built in Britain 2013 Competition. Would appreciate it if you could drop in a vote for a local entry.

If you feel like it you can vote for me on the link below by scrolling down until they see 2003 Triumph Bonneville
by Lindsay Young.

Don't think i have much chance of a top three position but to make the final 12 would be fantastic.

Much appreciated.

Cheers, Lindsay

Thanks to everyone again who voted. Actually came second overall and the bike was on display at the Birmingham NEC Bike Live Show (also won £500 of tools into the bargain!). Here's me and Jonathan Rea (WSB Champ - who handed out the prizes), complete with stunning Brolly Dolly (just a pity she was'nt part of the prize!!!)

Excellent with the competition :2up

I feel all guilty now, encouraging you out on a run last year and that bike getting wet ...well sort of guilty, all bikes should be ridden
