Pic of the week game

[Baatfam]

Good Friday Morning, GSR! Let's review our photos and vote.
First the theme of the week by Rich:

Things that make you say

(insert favorite swear word).

And that should be all of them. Good turn out this week.

As always, if anything is amiss please let us know. And don't forget to vote.

(And yes, today's summation was a little tricky, due to idle chit-chat, but the topic was very discussion worthy, so I blame Rich )

Thanks, Bob. I got big shoulders. I can take it.

voting for trevor. Looks like a Transformer stuck mid-transformation. He likely had a few choice words after that incident. I know he had a long recovery.

Some pictures are kinda sad so I'm voting for Mr Redman cuz that's the funniest. They all have the capacity to make you say, "%/□{€♤•?!!" for sure.

Burque73 gets my vote this week. I about cried when I saw that.

And a big thanks to Baatfam for sifting through all the fodder to put the summarization together.

I gotta vote for Burque73​. That would definitely cause some choice words.

All good entries for this one!

Voting for Redman as it reminds me of when I fitted cheap fork gaiters and they fell apart within a year. All the front had to come off again to replace them with Volvo steering rack boots, which will last until Doomsday.
I think I have a pic of it somewhere too, so could have put it up.

Burque73 .......

 

[kerrfunk]

I'm voting for Baat, for the freshness of the little puddle and the wisp of smoke

Got to be near the top for theme and entries, all great. Got to vote for gustovh just cause BTDT. I had that happen on a "SUNDAY AFTERNOON" to make it even worse, down near Chattanooga, appx. 100 mi. from home. Seemed the biggest OH SHEET ever till one of the guys said I've got a spare tube, I'd never known of anybody carrying a spare tube. We wadded his 18" tube in my 17" tire and made it home before dark.

 

[Redman]

Welcome DR Payne.

 

[Redman]

Many pics got a reaction out of me.

Baat's pic was interesting in how it revealed itself. First see the drips on pavement.... ew... then look around.... then the steam-smoke.... oh... then wonder what... oh coolant maybe, gear lube... either way, oh, yikes, thst puts an end to the fun. Good photo techniique to catch the steam-smoke.
And all that is going on, and, Bobs responce is that needs a photo so can post and tell about it.
,
But for Mr Roger Burque's pic, I actually had a sharp verbal utterance of "Oh, #@%&*, that WAS a good looking GK tank, what the @#$%& happened to it?".
So. I'll drop a vote for Burque.

 

[Rob S.]

Eli69 bas been reported to the humane society. I hope they can find that poor cold bike a warm home for the winter.

After riding for 60 years + I’ve had quite a few of these photos happen to me. Honorable mention DR Payne, kerrfunk,Burque,Redman,Rich(and it was brand new),but the one that takes you out of the game…not including wrecks, is marvinsic for the win.

My vote goes to Rich82GS750TZ​. I know it's not the most catastrophic mishap pictured, but something about the picture just specifically says %#!?@.

 

[marvinsc]

Voting for Burque73​, seeing that might make me invent as yet not invented curse words...............

 

[Eli69]

Rich , Rob S. voted for Mr Burque73.

And Mr. Rob S., don't worry, that bike can take it.​

 

[Rich82GS750TZ]

Got it, backed up and saw Rob’s actual vote. My comment deleted. Was trying to get you a vote, buddy.

 

[steve murdoch]

Voting for Eli69 and his live-action swearing pic.
It was only going to get worse.

 

[Burque73]

I honestly don't know how to vote this week. None of the pics this week give the viewer that warm and fuzzy feeling. Dr Payne's wiring got a bit too warm. Such a familiar sight. I'm planning on addressing that very same issue tomorrow. Hopefully you caught it before other parts cooked.

Voting for DrPayne.

 

[rphillips]

I'm kind'f having trouble remembering a time I said OH SHEET!! and getting a warm fuzzy feeling.
