It wasn't easy. Bones were broken and curses were spat, but the judges finally picked the winners of the first
Choppertown Nation online bike show. Chris from Biltwell summed things up pretty well, "Shit this was tough...a lot of crazy bikes." Carpy added, "Too many cool rides to choose from!"
This was an awesome first time and for the next one we're going to add some more categories to give everyone a chance to show off their work.
Thanks to the judges and sponsors for their contributions!
Prizes will be awarded to the top 5 in each category:
1st place gets a Biltwell lid, set of Dickies workshirt and pants, Lick's Jellies, and Choppertown DVD set!
2nd place gets Dickies workshirt, Lick's Jellies, and Choppertown DVD set!
3rd place gets Dickies workshirt and Choppertown DVD set!
4th and 5th place gets a Choppertown DVD set!
Honorable Mention receives a Guilty Custom's seat pan and shock!
