Title: My bike won Best In Show (but I cheated)
Post by: DC on June 14, 2015, 22:17:42 PM
I decided to go to a local hot rod and bike show that benefited charity.  I've never entered my bike in a show before, so this was all new to me.  I met some of the other bike contestants there and we chatted a bit.  Then it was time for the awards.  I saw awards go to other bikes and thought I never had a chance.  Then at the end, the announcer said "For Best In Show in the Motorcycle category, we have a 2001 Kawasaki Drifter".  I almost fell over when I heard the announcement.

Okay. . . about the cheating part.  I showed up with a Drifter, so there was no way any other bike could have won.

Now that these have become "collectable" and "unique", and the generation that recognizes them is mostly gone, we can probably expect to win more...what sucks is when we'll be in the "antique" class
