Nominations: Chimivee, Luwin

I'd have to vote my accident the worst of the year...

I nominate myself as Wheelsucker, since no one except Nacy thinks I give a good draft.

I vote Mr. Beanz as the best person to draft off of. :D

I vote Mr. Beanz as the best person to draft off of. :D

I guess that would depend on why you're drafting. ;)

I nominate myself for most embarassing post of the post of the year for my stupid human fingers in the spokes trick. (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?p=5465126)

I guess that would depend on why you're drafting. ;)

Gina says I have a cute butt!:p

I vote Beanz for the best person to draft. :p Thanx again Beanzo.

I nominate myself for the worst draft then. :lol: (5'8", 130 lbs...)

I nominate M.E. for the fatbagger of the year and for the worst avatar with that wet white cat :)

I vote 'JustMe' for posting the most and best Weather/Road Condition links!:D

I vote 'JustMe' for posting the most and best Weather/Road Condition links!:D

I second that nomination.

Nominate Roadfix for best funny face pic posting!:D

I also nominate ME for postwh0r3 of the year. Just check the "What's Up..." thread. :D

*ducks*

I'll nominate Asia into the most shiny mirror like shoe category!:p

Nominate Roadfix for best funny face pic posting!:D

I need links for best pictures!!!

I'll nominate Asia into the most shiny mirror like shoe category!:p

:mad: those are beacons man........wait til you're lost and need to signal for a helicopter or low flying plane. :mad: :p

:mad: those are beacons man........wait til you're lost and need to signal for a helicopter or low flying plane. :mad: :p

I believe it!:roflmao::roflmao::roflmao:

I like M.E.'s cat avatars. They're cute. But M.E.'s upside down one is the one that got me a little dizzy. :lol:

GregK for worst crash/Biggest roadrash for an under 5 mph crash!:eek:.....on Herb's B2B ride.

http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=344063

I nominate Chimivee for best cycling photos.

Inkedinpink for funniest google of a forum ride. Herb had posted a thread 'Herb's Beach Ride'. IiP googled it thinking it was a place called 'Herb's Beach' (Erb's Beach)! Funny story, guess you gotta be there!:D

Ofcourse everything IiP says is hilarious!

I nominate M.E. for the fatbagger of the year and for the worst avatar with that wet white cat :)

"You like me, you really really like me." Oh wait, I have to win first to give that speech don't I? :p

I nominate my "fake cleavage star avatar" as the worst avatar. :o

I nominate ALL rides as the best ride Go_Fast didn't show up for. :p

Best Avatar? Hmmm...so many good ones this year, but I'm certainly digging Jpconrad's recent Afro one. Too funny.

Fatbagger goes to Happytime...puhlease, the girl weighs 1/3 of what I do and all I hear is "I'm bloated and at my heaviest." :rolleyes:

Funniest picture is definitely Roadfix's legs shot in the What do you look like thread. :beer:

Best Thread? Hmmm....that's a hard one to judge. I'll have to go back and read through threads.

I also nominate ME for postwh0r3 of the year. Just check the "What's Up..." thread. :D

*ducks*

I nominate you for the most *ducks* type posts. :mad::p

I nominate Chimivee for best cycling photos.

+1,000,000 :D

Mr. Beanz, you're a great draft, but just for some competition, I'm going to throw Hollywood into the nominations. This may require a sudden death playoff.:D:D

You know you're getting old when weather and road conditions are big topics.:mad::p

I nominate this thread for Thread Of The Year:

http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=288726

I'll 2nd M.E.'s nomination of JPs afro avatar.

Hey, what about, SANDbagger of the Year nominations?

I nominate Spingineer. :D

I'll nominate MTBLurker for the 'Riding With The Sexiest Women' award. Notice I said 'Women', I got the 'Woman' categoryin the bag!:p

I used to wonder why he would never accept any of my invitations to ride. After I saw the women he rides with, I wouldn't want to ride with me either!:D

OH, and I nominate all of my avatars like the one I have now as the Dorkiest Avatars of the Year. You know, where I take a pic of myself at arms length when out riding and they all look the same. :p

OK - No more categories!!!! Just nominate peeps for the existing ones! :)

Yeah, well I nominate you, Happy, as the PartyPooper of the Year....:rolleyes::p

OK - No more categories!!!! Just nominate peeps for the existing ones! :)


She wants to get nominated into the 'sexiest women' category before she lets the categories continue!:p:D

Think this was the best crash of the yr going at negative speeds as Maddmike was rolling backwards trying to unclip as he attempted to clean this section at Aliso Woods

Hey, what about, SANDbagger of the Year nominations?

I nominate Spingineer. :D

Nah, ME is the definition of Sandbagger. I should post a new wiki for ME as sandbagger.

Here's my good roadrash:

What.. no votes for Hispanic Handlebars, RAAM, the bike maintenance soiree, or the long lost "What's Up" thread?


I nominate ALL rides as the best ride Go_Fast didn't show up for. :p


I nominate the Tour de Femmes ride.

Oh wait... NO ONE showed up for that one! :p

Don't forget my show off your legs thread...

All right. The RAAM thread (what happened? version) gets my nomination.

urban hipsters vs true roadies

Boo! I nominate that thread for the most useless thread of the year. I said something IN context and it became fodder for bored 20 somethings and has been used out of context ever since. I nominate "True Roadie" as the most overused, extended hyperbole expression of the year. :rolleyes:

the bike maintenance soiree


I nominate this thread for sure as it captures the true spirit of So Cal and our proclivity to derail threads. :D

i got nothing....i don't think i joined you guys till mid year...so i know nutin...

Here's another good road rash thread courtesy of ovoleg:

I got lots of requests earlier this year to ditch this one. It stays until I win for worst avatar.

6'4, 185, but youd never catch up to draft.

No, that wasn't the worst, silly. I remember one that you had that was worse than that...:D

You should ask ronjon10 about that. This avatar gave him "waking nightmares"
