The CBY averages about 6-8 judges each year.
If you have a Classic entered in the CBY, then you can't be a judge for that year, so the judges are not always the same.
Personally, I never know who the judges are and it's best I don't know. I do however, truly enjoy presenting the awards.
Since our inception of CBY in 1998, to encourage collectors to present rare bicycles that most people would NEVER see, the entry fee is still only $10
Usually there's an average of maybe 10 bicycles entered in CBY.
So Annie and I have personally contributed over $15,000 in awards just so we and thousands of collectors could see these incredible bikes in person.
