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

I have been playing this game on another forum and it's a lot of fun. It gives people the chance to post a pic that fits the current theme thereby opening up more possibilities in many locations.



Rules:

  1. Today is Saturday, I'll start with a theme.
  2. Saturday to Thursday is submissions time. Everyone else can post one (and only one) picture that meets the theme.
  3. Friday is voting day. Vote for the picture you like the most. You can vote even if you didn't participate with a pic during the week. (voting closes at midnight, Pacific time zone).
  4. In case of a tie during the voting day, the first vote that breaks the tie the day after will decide the winner, unless of course one party wishes to concede to the other.
  5. Saturday, the winner of the week posts a new theme using an example picture.
  6. The example picture ALSO participates.
  7. Any bike can participate... not only GS's (as long as it was yours when the pic was taken)
  8. The date of the picture does not matter, or who took the pic. You can use new or old pics as long as you've got the bike in the pic (or as much of the bike as necessary for the theme) and they meet the week's theme.


Summarizing:
  • Saturday to Thursday: Pics that meet the week's theme are submitted.
  • Friday: Vote for your favorite pic of the week.
  • If you submit a pic for the week keep an eye on the votes you get, or at least check the thread on Saturday to see if you've won.
  • Saturday: The winner posts a new theme using an example photo.




Here's the theme, LOW LIGHT.

Haha Well Roger, heavy is the Crown!
I love your enthusiasm...
FYI the pic you posted in the "anyone go for a ride thread" with your bike looking at the gas station sign was just awesome... I so want to ride that area!

Best,

Fortunately it's not up to just one person to choose the best pic.

NM definitely has some great spots to ride. As I discovered on the Eastern part of the state, even flat lands are an adventure. From cotton farms to wind energy and an ever changing desert climbing to green mountains there's much to offer. The volcanic activity also makes for some interesting landscape.

.....

how is it intended to conduct the voting....?
(I myself, am not interested in that aspect of all this. Just like the idea of seeing folks pics of a selected topic.)
maybe start a poll on that day.
maybe have folks email you thiere vote.

It's simple really. On Friday, voting day, chime in right here with a post naming your choice for the week.

It'll work and it's great to see where the theme goes from there.


Edit; the quote feature sure is acting weird!

Finally, it's Friday!

I'll toss a vote in the box here for the Castle shot by dorkburger.
