                  Edited because I could not see pic. Still can't see this pic on any PC browser I try. Can see it on my iphone. It's a BBCode from Imgur. Maybe it's that Imgur is blocked on my work PC? Can everyone else see the image below? Well, after doing a little reading on it, I guess if my company IT has blocked Imgur, then I won't be able to see any of those images on the work PC. Dang it.

                          This is hard, a curve is a curve, all good but about equal. I'm voting for trevor this week his is about as good as the rest... It may not be legal, but thinking the curves from his last weeks picture may have swayed me a little.

                                AH, Yes! All nice photos.

                                Rich is only one that went with the fact it said "curves", not "curvey road", not "roadside shot of curvey road".

                                Liked trevor and gustov on-the-road action shots. (I used to do that.)

                                Hey! Burque CA78 ! I been there a few times (more on CA79 only cuz closer to Oceanside).
                                Ok, now I recall you had been there a few years ago.

                                Lots of intersting, fun shot. Most all of them, I can just imagine riding along, and noticing the scene as a good place for a photo, maybe even turning around and going back.
                                For voting, Need something for a tie-breaker.
                                Some shots had the curvy in road and also featured somethingelse that seemed to be the intention of the shot or a lot of somethingelse weither was intneded or not.
                                I thought THe three shots that best featured the "curve" were Eli,
                                and Bob baatfam, multiple curves actually, (and the framing I like of standing back and zooming in) (and the Bob framing of looking over bike that is pointed into the scene).
                                ANd Ron 78GS750E, with the elvation change the most of the frame is the road curving, and has the road sign there, in distance, not too distracting, not a main element of the scene, dont really notice it till later, and then it does documents the road .
                                Its a toss up.
                                A vote for Ron 78GS750E. I like that my reaction was saying "oh, thats nice, curve all the way thru the frame, curve down and up and in the distance, um, nice, ..... oh, its 555"
