runner up unrestored is the ET KUWI behind this moosegoose. It was found on the side of the road. (no kidding)

As you can see in the back ground, the bikes displayed weren't too shabby.

Good stuff Christian and thanks for taking a few photos. I was too lazy to bring a camera and preferred to cruise along the beach without the backpack. None of those photos do justice to the finish on the Hutch Judge. ROBERTO's work is simply amazing on that one and it has to be seen to be believed. Three JMCs and a couple of Pattersons isn't a bad turnout either.

Awesome photos Christian - thanks for sharing!
Adam's Judge is just fantastic...I'd love to see it in the flesh. I so wanted to get down there for the gathering.
Love your Torkers too! Great colour combo Mate! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Who had the SLA mini? Pretty wild.....and of course that sweet '75 gooose (wonder who own's that?)...LOL
I liked Matt's CW and his display.

Who found the ET on hard rubbish? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)


........also, are we all "Borthers" now...ha ha

hey Mick,

Kiwi Paul owns the SLA, great story with that bike too. I forgot the name of the guy who owns the ET, but his mate found it on the side of the road as hard rubbish called him and said he found a bike on the side of the road I believe he wanted to take the wheels off for his daughters bike. The current owner offered to build his friends daughter a complete bike if he would leave the ET complete. Happy ending to the current owner, I was chatting with him, sorry I'm shocking with names, (rude bastard).

Great pics, one day I'll put a bike in one of those shows on the east coast. I am really considering Roberto's gig but 5 and half hours in a plane is not my idea of fun.
