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.

Pic of the week game

Good morning all,
Steve Murdoch gets my vote as well. It has two things I love - old cycles, and abandoned stuff...
Close second is Jedz.
 
Redman for me this week. I like the angle of the boat coming in. Also, through his windshield he may have captured a rare image of jogging Siamese twins.
 
Thanks for the vote, Tx, glad it made you smile!
Funny thing, I went to Hillbilly Hotdogs at 2pm on Thursday, thinking I'd grab a late lunch, and maybe I'd see a barge on the Mighty Ohio River (I did not, hence the Hillbilly boat pic).
The line to order was at least 20 people long, and you couldn't swing a cat by its tail without hitting a motorcycle. Dozens. Never seen it that busy. And Thursday, 2pm? What's up with that? I took my picture and grabbed lunch at a DQ instead.

Anyhoo. My vote is for agemax. I keep coming back to that first picture, and my eyes meander all around it, and it pleases me.
Props to jedz for another cool photo, and of course to murdoch for that pirate ship!
 
Voting for mr ķerrfunk hillbilly hot dog boat. Also makes me smile.

I would have entered a pic of my bike on the same ferry as mr. Jedz but couldn't find it.
 
Yeah, I think I have to go with the Hotdog stand as well. The originality of that one is too good to pass up. Plus, I'm a Chicago boy, and love hotdogs...
 
hey, i am available this Saturday (although, typing with one hand)

tally

steve murdock 2, kerrfunk 3, redman 1, agemax5

congrats agemax, with a rare successive week win.
 
Thanks guys. now i will need to trawl back and take a look at all the topics that have been covered so far and think up something new. i am at work at the moment so will sort it when i get home.
 
Congrats, agemax! yes, a rare consecutive win!

I'm not positive but I think I may have seen that restaurant on the cooking channel once.... Do they serve something called " The Home Wrecker " ? { I think that was what it was called. |

They do have a HomeWrecker, yes. I have never had it. I might should try it, though.
Fifteen-inch one-pound hotdog with two pounds of spicy stuff and fixins.
There's a WidowMaker as well, a two pound dog with even more fixins.

It's been featured on some cooking show or something, and I think it was featured on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon a few years ago.

Hillbilly Hotdogs is seven miles from my home.
 
ok so really struggling to find a theme but i will try this one. "wildlife". show us a pic of your bike with some wildlife in the shot. Any living animal will do but it has to be wild, not your next door neighbours cat sat on your bike,lol. This may be tricky for some i think but prove me wrong.
This is a pic taken on Dartmoor in the UK, a herd of wild Dartmoor ponies. Saw them as i was approaching so killed the engine and coasted up as near as i could without spooking them and then had to wait quietly for a while for them to wander this close to me.

Fun topic. I've captured images of buffalo, turkey, deer, some long haired giant goat thing, ducks and cows all with the bike in the pic. Lets see if I can find one I haven't used before. ;)

only photo i have
SeDdmrq.jpg

a deer that was trotting down the road just in front of me.
i had time to get out camera and make a hurried shot.
not at all a good pic to consider, so am not concerned that this pic file is a composition.

ps: actually i am not too sure it is a deer. more reason why i went to effort to get a picture
