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

Not sure about the old name, but yes, 441 from my house, over the dam to Rocky Top, cross I-75 and you are at 116 about 10 miles from the triangle.
Maybe 40 miles from my house.
Now that Brushy prison is open for tours, and sells lunch, it will likely be on my list for next year.
Tony's Diner, however is one of my favorite things about town. Old school, and still has working neon, and is mostly original inside as well.
Time isn't on my side this week. They are only open late (ish) Wednesday thru Saturday. I got stuck on a late call at work this evening, and it's supposed to rain like crazy tomorrow, so likely no neon joy....

Not meaning to gate crash this thread at all, but I really enjoy seeing the photos of objects and places in your country, so I thought I would share a photo I took today near the area I live. My apologies that it is not the best quality photo (just quickly snapped with my cellphone while on a last-minute Xmas shopping run).
This is the iconic "Table Mountain" and "Lions Head" that towers above the city of Cape Town, about 80 km from my home town of Wellington. The sandy foreground area is about 10 km from the coastline of Table Bay, and is being prepared for new commercial buildings.
Best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a wonderful, safe 2019 to you all.
Kind regards from South Africa

Thank you, but I just dropped in to share that photo, which is actually the first photo I have of my bike and Table Mountain, although I have lived in the area forever!
This was not an "official" entry into your game, because I know that I will not be able to contribute on a weekly basis due to work pressure. I just enjoy seeing everyone's photo's!
I think that is a picture very worthy of entry. I will let the other players have there say, but I think you are entered, sorry. LOL...
Don't worry, if you win, all you have to do is pick the new theme. If you can't do that, the runner up will assume the duty.
With a photo like that, You are entered, and I would say, in the running - har har.
Weekly participation is not at all required.
In the not unlikely event you will need to; Could use same pic to name the next subject-theme, say, ah, "Clouds" or "Something in the distance" or "riding in open area"....
Let me gather up the submissions.
First the statement of the theme-category-subject (along with submission)
................................................ How about something fairly close to home that shows a bit of the personality of where you live. ......................................... has to tell a little bit of your area. .
...........
and the other submissions:
.
...
more .................
Let me know if I missed any.
(Yes, I purposly included Ben 2BRacing.)
Man, I like this game.
Some pics are "close to home", cant get much closer than driveway or garage.
Some pics (like mine) show something unique about the area.
And then are 5 pics that show something of what the area is like, makes you think the entire area is like that, and are great pics. If were to look at these pics, without any introduction of the category-theme, I would say these pics show what the area is like, if I were to ride anywhere around the area this is what I would likely see. I keep coming back to Sandy, DaveR, CharlieG, Rich82 and Ben 2BRacing.
For voting I will choose DaveR with Ben 2BRacing a close 2nd.
