Britain’s best custom bikes, as voted for by thousands of UK motorcyclists, are set to be revealed this Thursday (November 27th) as Britain’s Got Biking Talent climaxes at the Carole Nash International Motorcycle and Scooter Show.
Organised by Carole Nash, the UK’s biggest bike insurance specialist, and bikers’ bible Motor Cycle News, the competition attracted hundreds of entries and nearly 20,000 votes from the great British biking public.
The entries that flooded in from across the nation spanned the biking spectrum pitting custom against classic, racer against roadster. Now the day of reckoning is drawing near after the judges – who included MCN editor Marc Potter, controversial Daily Telegraph and MCN columnist, Kevin Ash and top UK customiser Roger Allmond – whittled down the top 50 bikes voted for by the public to the winning dozen.
Strict secrecy has so far surrounded the top 12 bikes and their owners who, having enjoyed a professional photo-shoot by top bike photographer Adam Duckworth, now know they’re in the running for the £1,000 top prize. Bikers will be able to see each bike close up on a special Britain’s Got Biking Talent stand (2B15) at The Show which will also host the winners’ presentation on Thursday morning.
But-no-one, as they say, will go away empty handed. All 12 bikes will feature in the Carole Nash 2009 calendar, 120,000 copies of which will be distributed free at The Carole Nash International Motorcycle Show and other biking events. They will also star in a digital calendar which the company will be offering as a free download on its website (www.carolenash.com) .In addition the runner up will win a Shoei helmet worth nearly £400 and the third placed winner £250 worth of Spada biking gear - helmet and biking gear courtesy of Feridax.com. The top three winners will also enjoy up to £250 off a Carole Nash insurance policy and free cover for their helmets and leathers.
