Winners of First Annual Choppertown Backyard Bike Build Contest (2010) Posted by Zack Coffman on Oct 23rd 2014 Reprinted from original post in 2010It 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. The judges were: Kutty (Hippy Killer) Irish Rich (Shamrock Fabrication) Duane (Duane Ballard Custom Leather) Carpy (CB750 Cafe) Fab Kevin (Fabricator Kevin's) Carl (Guilty Customs) Chris (Biltwell) Wes (Four Aces) Big Truth (Choppahead) Sean (XsSpeed Choppers) Rich (Rich Phillips Cycles and Leathers) Meatball (Hell On Wheels) We used a point system for all bikes getting votes and came up with the winners. Some builders, Leila and Tritonman actually tied for first with BOTH of their entries so we put them together to make more room for other winners. Check out all the bikes here. So without further ado, THE WINNERS ARE... 1st Place - Chopper Category - Sik's '72 Shovelhead 1st Place - Bobber Category - Leila's '42 UL and '93 Pan 1st Place Cafe Racer Category - Tritonman Steve's '62 Morgo and '55 Triton Here's the other winners: 2nd Place Chopper Category - Joel Haunestein's Ironhead 2nd Place Bobber Category - Dirty Bobber's '31 VL 2nd Place Cafe Racer Category - Chris Bernardi's '56 Triton 3rd Place Chopper Category - Mike Stobbe's '56 Pan/Shovel 3rd Place Bobber Category - Rudi Sudjono's '55 WL 3rd Place Cafe Racer Category - Charie Baltimore's '72 Triumph Tiger 4th Place Chopper Category - Saywhat's '65 Bonnie and Rudi Sudjono's '58 Panhead 4th Place Bobber Category - John K.
