    OK, my bike is back together. For the second test ride, we did another father-son ride to the cop shop and followed cowboyup's inspiration.



    This one is NOT an entry, just showing the father-son part of it.


    About a week ago, this is what my bike looked like:

        I live in a small logging town of 2000, that had 2 100 year floods. After the last one FEMA condemned the schools and we had to tear them down. The large trees that were out front of the schools, cut down as well. So a local chain saw artist converted one of the stumps. Here is my entry.

          Great looking fish Gustov. Knowing how hard and time-consuming carving something like that is by hand, I often wonder how guys can do it with a chain saw. I envy their skills.



          With that said, it's Friday morning and I have to say, my vote is going for Burque.

                    Again, multiple good entries, including Cowboys sample submission (those are eligible for voting, you know).......
                    So had to think of a tie-breaker, and such deliberation results in my vote going for Trevor, with the main subject filling the entire frame, and minimal extraneous distractions, and the bike seems to strangely fit in (maybe due to the common coloration).

                        Tough vote for me, between Roger, and that really cool silo. I think I have to go with Roger though. Just really cool how it looks like she is reaching for a toy Suzuki, lol...

                          Voting for Roger... love the setup.

                          I had had an old Pic I was going to use, but it?s in digital purgatory as well.

                              Yep, a BUNCH of good photos. Wide variety of topics, some stuff you don't normally see. Some that some people might not think of as "art", but let's face it, they obviously have warped ideas of what constitutes "art". I think every picture this week qualifies as "art".

                              My vote this week goes to Roger, for the effort put into placing his bike "into the art".
