      Here is my photo for Pic-of-the-week. This is in Suffield Ohio, a suburb of Akron. This photo was taken on one of my favorite after work rides with a nice restaurant just down the road.

        Wow Norm. Those wire wheels look great. I either forgot or missed that you did the conversion. You definitely had me doing a double take.

          Thank you for noticing Sandy. Your 1000e motorcycle was my inspiration. I have about $1,300 wrapped up in them. I think it was well worth it. ☺

            You've got it right again Sandy.

            Really sorry about not remembering that YOU took that picture ! It's my favorite pictures from all the rallies we went to. Well maybe the photo of the WSP checking out Vince's tire tread is a very close second......

                I was bored, what else can I say? Now back to our regular scheduled programming.

                    Yah, up to Thursday midnight pacific, maybe best to edit your original post to have the new pic.
                    or ..... in your original post revise it to say have deleted original pic, then make new post with new pic.

                      Found an interesting picture (for us motorcyclist) that has a sign as a major element of the scene.

                      Brown County this year, went off on my own for an afternoon, and while following my front fender I found this place .

                      ^^my submission (will delete previous).


                      and this is what I found just past that bend on the right.........

                      I wondered if that was some descendant of ol' man Boone there on the tractor raking the hay.
                      (Indian Creek Road)

                      Speaking of signs, this sign on IN-58 was a large factor in me finding the above scenes.

                      Was also some other interesting finds, including an old iron bridge, and lots of narrow curvy road that followed the lay-of-the-land.

                        Friday. Vote Day.
                        Let me summarize the entries.

                        And then lots of discussion and lots of other entries.
                        Here are the other entries, without the discussion.................

                            I counted 13 entries, and I believe you have them all. Thanks again, Dave for your extra effort for the game.

                            Another good crop of photos. Let's vote!

                              Thanks for the recap, Dave.
                              My vote is for Sandy and the Ellery Lake picture.
                              Real crisp picture, broad subject, and it tells a story in location (mountains, lake, elevation) and how the (very clean looking!)bike is packed.
