Back Street Heroes

2021 BSH CUSTOM CHAMPS

-

– GET THE INFO’ HERE

Due to the effects of the bastard bat plague, we’re going to have to run much of it as an online thing again. There’ll be four online rounds (May, June, July, August) that you enter simply by posting a pic of your bike in the relevant thread on any of the Facebook pages listed below:

BSH Facebook Page

BSH Facebook group (Back Street Heroes – The Official Group) Streetfigh­ters Facebook group (Streetfigh­ters Magazine – Hooligan Undergroun­d) Butchered Classics Facebook group

As well as those, we will (fingers crossed) be able to do two real world rounds too:

3rd JULY NCC LONDON’S DIAMOND DAY

ACE CAFE, ACE CORNER, NORTH CIRCULAR RD, LONDON

(NW10 7UD)

29-31st ROCK & BLUES CUSTOM SHOW

CONEY GREY SHOWGROUND, CHESTERFIE­LD ROAD, PENTRICH, DERBYS (DE5 3RF)

AND EACH ROUND WILL HAVE, THIS YEAR, SIX CATEGORIES: 1. BEST CHOPPER 2. BEST CUSTOM 3. BEST NEW SKOOL CUSTOM (CAFE RACER, STREET SCRAMBLER, ETC.) 4. BEST PAINT 5. BEST ENGINEERIN­G 6. BEST BUTCHERED CLASSIC (PRE-1990)

One bike from each of these categories’ll be picked as the winner of that class at that round and, just like previous years, to ensure that all judging’s completely impartial (and not just ‘who’s got the most mates to vote for their bike’), we’ve a hand-picked panel of judges, respected folk from the custom bike world who really know their stuff, who’ll choose their favourites from the winners of each category, and the one with the most votes from them wins (in the event of a tie, us ‘ere at BSH’ll have the deciding vote).

THE JUDGES ARE:

PAUL TIMPSON

FROM ZODIAC UK

ODGIE (YEP, THE LEGENDARY MAN HIMSELF)

MURRELLS FROM THE NATIONAL CHOPPER CLUB COMMITTEE

VIC & LIN

FROM DESTINY CYCLES

DAVE SOLOMON FROM BUTCHERED CLASSICS

The six winners from that’ll go on to be the stars of the BSH Custom Heroes stand at Motorcycle Live at the NEC in Birmingham (Sat 4th–Sun 12th December) where there’ll be a presentati­on with awards, huge amounts of prize money (approx. £500 each category, £750 for Best Overall!), and Zodiac vouchers worth £250 too!

You don’t have to enter each round, unless you want to of course, because you can only win once. Of course, if you don’t win at the first one, you can always go to one of the others to give yourself another chance. Last year it was probably the biggest custom show in the world – over 1,000 entrants!

Good luck!
