Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pic of the week game

Bunch of great shots again....

gustovh's, dorkburger's, trevor's, and Rich's all sit very high on my list, and all are really stand out photos.

But I keep going back to Roger's (Burque73), and he gets my vote.
The vertical art looming over the bike just works for me, even though it is almost the subject, not back ground.
And I rarely like portrait format photos anyway, so it must REALLY work for me.:D
 
Vote totals as of this morning...A very spread out vote this week...

One vote each: trevor, Redman, Baatfam, dorkburger, marvinsc, Burque73, and cowboyup3371

With two votes: Rich82GS750TZ

And with three votes, our winner is kerrfunk...

(If someone could verify my count, that would be great)
 
Yep, Keerfunk 3, Rich 2. And single votes for 7 others. All as Bob said.

Interesting vote in that had votes for 9 contributors, which is almost 2/3rds of all the entries.
I would say this is because a lot of pictures did have something quite colorful in the background.

Also interesting (in doing the tally) in that the last vote, the 12th vote, breaking the 2-2 tie.


PS: 14 entries (counting the sample, which is an entry) and 12 votes for 9 different entries.
9 of 14 is 0.64 which well over 1/2, is almost 2/3rds (0.66).

That was a good crop of photos, for sure.

Congratulations, kerrfunk! What cool theme do you have for us this week?

(We are suppose to have some nice, warm, riding weather this week:cool:)
 
Another close vote, and a fun theme.

Here's my records of 2019:

And for this week I'll say the theme is "Biker's Point Of View"
and I put it in quotations in case you wish to creatively interpret.

 
Not a great photo, but an accurate "biker's point of view" ;)

Bob, i am assuming the dash is showing the time the photo was taken at 1:14. lol.
No wait...it is a Triumph which is English which means it is showing 114 kmh. That makes more sense.
You Hooligan!

I've gone through a couple GoPros, my current one being a HERO4 Black, and they do take decent photos.
But that screen grab was from a very cheap RC plane camera in 720P60 mode.
