Come on you lot. We've only had 7 votes. Get your ass in gear and get voting

[VTRDark]

There are some very slow storms out there Come on peeps, even if you only fill in some of the categories, get your wheels in motion before they seize up.

And Lloydie was thinking of doing a UK Storm of the month/quarterly or whatever. At this rate there will be no point in yearly one

Now get your thinking lids on and get you ass's in gear.

Good evening - here are the votes as cast by the BVG

1.) The most prolific poster for 2012 [the forum statistics should decide that one] - for sheer volume and unbelievable breadth and depth of knowledge and nonsense, it is Carlos. For sheer polish I would plump for Chric
2.) The best storm - Lloydie's is a delight and not often something where it all seems to hang. Kev's needs a mention as, excusing the colour, it is a very complete and hanging together Storm
3.) The best SP1/2 - CheekyKevs never seen it but it seems popular, although the full black one I copped an eyeful of once was pure ecstasy
4.) The best non VTR - the KH at AMcQ's, something from a byegone era and the bike is nice as well
5.) The most helpful member [providing free bits, advice etc] - Carl, for all the help on cleaning carbs in the summer, CyberCarb I reckon, but I must mention MacV2 for Grainstorm, helpful technically, baconly, biscuitly and was a hostess with something.
6.) New member of the year...... Carl,
7.) The best on bike vid - that gig into Wales, I wanted to be there but couldn't so it made do and whetted the appetite for this year. Scotland hopefully - get a shift on Al
8.) The worst fashion item - those helmet ears. Brave but ....
9.) The best avatar - Seb421's no explanation
10.) The project we are most looking forward too completing in 2013 - Flatline's Ducati or now Stylers CX is on the blocks? Go with Flatline on this
11.) The best pet - currently Murv's, and for the life he's given the dog. Although Lloydie's manbeast for sheer comedy value.
12.) Maddest partner - TonyW without a doubt, makes mine look like a saint, although she is seeing the error of her ways it seems

Biggest vote to all you guys who make this what it is, I'm indebted to all the oracles, pisstakers, parts suppliers, bullshitters, social workers and cabbies

[geodude]

Thanks BigVeeGrin. I have taken your first answer to be your choice ok? lol

[MacV2]

Thanks BigVeeGrin. I have taken your first answer to be your choice ok? lol

[AMCQ46]
