It should be called "prewar balloon tire" bike of the year. I can't remember the last time any love was given to any thing else. A family original paramount was not one of the two best "preserved"? Also would it make sense to have a separate class for the "themed" bicycle? Oh well, Not my show. Have to respect the decisions made.
I'm just curious who/how the judging is done for CBOY. I know the other classes its peoples choice. Who makes up the judges for CBOY? Is there any established criteria or simply subjective? V/r Shawn

It is called the Ann Arbor CLASSIC bicycle show. And as we all know uncle Leon has determined that Classic refers to the Balloon Tire era bike and none other. But these things shouldn't keep people from showing such bikes as an original paramount or any other non-balloon bike. It would get really boring really fast if it was a balloon tire bike only parade/show. If that were the case we would have never seen cabe owner Scott's amazing TOC Dayton with spherical hubs that he brought a couple years ago or Patric's wild suspension Flying Merkel! Sorry I wasn't able to make it this year but hoping to make it next year. I really want to see more pics of the '17 Merkel! That machine looked pretty sweet!
