    I vote for the 4-corner picture of Mrs. Steve's motorcycle 👍

    If that photo wins, Mrs. Steve has to pick the next subject. Yes? ☺

        I'm in congruence with Norm's logic on this.

          We were discussing that possibility a couple of nights ago. Will have to see if she has picked anything.

            Storm is spot on with both of choices.

              Some good documentary photos.
              I was not available to vote Friday, but I was thinking that Trevs border crossing pic was documentary and told something of a story.

              Is Saturday now, have 5 entries, and 4 votes.
              And the tally is 4 votes for mr/mrs Steve.

                  Sorry gents, I had intended to vote, but was busy at work at a new jobsite. We were undoing the results of a poor installation by another contractor(s) and the ongoing problems it caused. $10 million dollar (I?m told) mansion. Beautiful place, but the mechanical installation was horrible and wrong in many ways.

                    Thanks, guys. It has been a while since I posted anything, so I had to re-register.

                    We thought about this for a bit and decided on a theme that just about anybody can relate to, although pictures might be a bit limited.

                    The theme for this week will be "Slightly less-than-perfect riding weather."

                    On the Blue Ridge Parkway:

                      I used to swear that my old 1100 had a black cloud over it that dumped rain whenever it left the state. That bike is long gone though.

                      A more recent picture with my current cycle.

                        Welcome to the game Mrs Steve! BRP is one of my all-time favorite roads to ride on....

                        So my pic for less than perfect weather. December this past year went out for a good 50 mile loop and was bummed rush by a snow squall that quickly dropped a couple of inches of snow. The FZ6 held up quite well!



                        20ish miles home turned into an hour+ ride! Oops.

                          Great theme Mr/Mrs Steve.
                          Maybe identify which of the 3 photos is your entry.


                          Man, the quality of the photos so far, somewhat discourages me. .

                            Although they all show the theme of "less than perfect riding conditions", I will select the third picture as the official entry, as it shows the least visibility.

                            Dave, I can only wonder about your discouragement. Is it because of the lack of artistic quality of the pictures (doubtful ) or is it because you are more of a fair-weather rider and might not have an entry?

                                I see, you like to use the sarcastic whistle just like your husband...lol...what Dave is saying...is a compliment to the photos so far...as in "I'm discouraged because they are so good, and I may find it hard to submit a worthy pic"....

                                Btw...I really like Dork's pic...very cool!
