    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

Voting for DaveR this week. Regardless of his explanation of not really being lost, it looks like he hiked up that hill from his bike, maybe to get a cell signal, only to find a this beautiful shot. I really like the sense of wide openness and the subtle tones of the ground and especially in the overcast sky.
 
Gotta go with Gustovh this week because of the remote location and the fact that it is quite obvious that THAT bike shouldn't be there.
 
Apples vs. oranges again. Burques pic
illustrates a vast, out there, sparsely filled space
. The dried road says this is not a place to be after a rain. Trevors pic suggests the theme - if only the guy with the blue jacket was pointing to the right. Have to come back to Baatfams simple and clean image. With the leafy lane in the background, a bike and the priceless look on his face, it is a complete package.

So you see 11 images in his summary?

I'm using a phone so I'll have to look later on my desktop. This is odd...
 
When does voting end? I like Baatfam's picture cause I've been there. Second is DaveR searching for TREX. I like it a lot as well but I'll vote for Baatfam.
 
I have it here on my phone, Roger.

Thanks Bob. This is odd. I went through my settings to see if I could check or uncheck anything preventing posts with images from showings up. Sometimes I can't see pics hosted by Photobucket as they tend to come and go. Not sure what host you use. Is it P. B. by chance?

When I post it keeps bringing up other quotes from previous posts. I'll reboot my phone and see if that helps solve these issues.

Roger, here's BAATFAM's picture. I re-uploaded it to my flickr. Click on the pic and you should be able to see the bigger copy.

 
My vote is for Dave R. So vast.
Honorable mention to Bob for that lost look,
and to Jedz for a neat pic. I like the clouds reflected in that red helmet!

Dont look lost.

But does look like found Roger Burque73.

.
 
Thanks for the summary, Bob.

Hey, this is fun, eh?
Lots of fun pictures.

Many nice pics of bikes in remote desolate places. Maybe the rider was lost at the time, or maybe just stopped for some other reason, nothing in the picture indicates that were lost.

Between baatfam, mine and Trevor, I will vote for baatfam.
If I were to see that picture without any association with this weeks game, I would describe that facial expression as "I am puzzled, should I continue this direction or should I turn back?", or maybe "How did I get here? How do I get out of here?"

When does voting end?..... ..... .... ...
Voting is Friday (Pacific time), so I would say ends at Midnight (Pacific time), well, unless is a tie, and then proceeds until tie is broken.

(first few posts list the rules-procedure.)
