    Parked broadside in the middle of the road Redman style, gotta vote for the curviest road by Burque.

      Gorgeous Gamma in front of that stunning backdrop.
      Lorenzo is an easy pick for me.

          Burque for me this week, great entries all around!
          sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
          2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

          Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

            Toss-up between Baatfam's and Trevor's hairpins, but the hump on the exit of Baatfam's would make it interesting under power.
            So, Baatfam, for me.

                Bob, my statement of the theme was a quote
                “I like a curve in the scene.”
                (ah, and being a quote in my post, you probably didn’t see it when you quoted my post doing the summation.)

                oh…. Voting…. I enjoyed all the entries, cuz they all had a curve, of some sort, in the scene. Some pics included a curve, and some the picture was definitely about the curve.
                Need to ponder my vote.

                And, Welcome to Lorenzo.

                  I really like marvinscott pic, but wonder why is it vertical when the scene of bikes on road is horizontal. My guess would be Musta been someone with smartphone someone under the age of 35 that never had any other “real” camera. Har har har.

                  roger burque gets honorable mention for bike pose and view of S curves. I wonder if are any such curves in Albuquerque area, or where that is he went.

                  the two 180degree turn pics got my interest.

                  vote for Bob baatfam. The curve fills the entire frame. The curve is the intent of the entire picture.
                  Maybe I like it because I have a similar pic of 180degree turn with elevation change on NC28 (but with bike in foreground, a rental Harley). I did have to look to see if it was the same place. Nope, the place on NC28 has a bridge and has trees in center of curve, otherwise it looks the same.

                      And since quotes within quotes are not quoted, I misquoted your quote.

                          Thanks for the votes. Sure wish I was able to get to that spot for last week's fall color theme. Trees probably already passed their peak color up there though. That pic is in the Sandia Mountains East of town, about 25 miles from home.

                          I'll have another theme up shortly.
