It can be your build
It can be from a ride
It can be from a build thread
It can be from BOTM
It can be from MK

Which bike has caught your eye and stayed in your memory this year?

Mine has to be Carl's blue Hutch. It's currently on the December page of the 2016 Rad calendar as well as winning best bike at Cleethorpes

I've got no photos but at MK I did really like Matt ( Kerryman's ) uber rare pink MRD Freestyler ( it was a later model that ended up being sold/given ( back ) to Rickman and later sold as a Rickman.
I think it came second at MK in the freestyle section..
A bike many never got to see...

Anyone got any pictures ? Matt or any other tractor boy ?

... Benno?

There's been some great builds on here this year and it's hard to pick just one but for me it's got to be Ants Quad, an absolute stunner!

For me it has to be this beauty...

Stunning build by Mr McQueen

That's a bloody difficult question!!! I'm going to have to go away and have a good think about it!

dannyb · « **Reply #13 on:** December 22, 2016, 06:39 PM »

Dave Racine's dayglow pink GT

griff · « **Reply #14 on:** December 22, 2016, 11:18 PM »

Too many to choose from

Right now am thinking this beauty, I wouldn't change anything on it

dancetothedrummersbeat · « **Reply #15 on:** December 22, 2016, 11:26 PM »

I finish work in 8 hours and will be off for a week

I'll have a trawl through

and post up my favourite. There were a few standout builds for me this year, 3 of which have already been mentioned: Matt's March/Rickman, Ant's black/gold quad, and McQueen's GHP Trix

McQUEEN · « **Reply #16 on:** December 23, 2016, 08:56 AM »

My favorite bike this year was the Free Agent Freestyler that dirtskirt found.....

http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,188706.0.html

because for me this has the great potential in becoming an uber rare mid 80's freestyler and its the one I need for my collection!!

Good shout .. Such a rare find

deeman · « **Reply #18 on:** December 23, 2016, 05:06 PM »

As said before....McQUEEN's TRIX is the one standout build for me. Perfect in every way...

cheeta · « **Reply #19 on:** December 23, 2016, 10:06 PM »

I don't like the term "a real heard turner" but this thing was, walked past it at Cleethorpes spent a good few minutes checking it out

steve69 · « **Reply #20 on:** December 24, 2016, 09:02 AM »

There have been loads of great builds this year as always.

The first to spring to mind is James Hanna's white Hutch Judge with the stars n stripes fork

That's my kinda bad attitude ride.

Yeah, that was a stunner, but after spending a good half hour going through this year's bikes, I'm going to have to say Ash's gold SE Quad. Simply perfect!
