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.

    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

Lots of nice pics once again and it's hard to pick, but I keep going back to one. Voting for Redman Dave. The bike is positioned perfectly between the boulders, the contrast of colors between bike and rock is beautiful. Anyone else see how the lines of the rock mimic the lines of the bike, or vice versa?

I like Redman's for that impressive rock feature and the layout of the photo, but I'm voting for Dave R because of how it makes me want to ride!
 
Some great pics of fascinating rock formations from Burque, Dorkburger and Kerrfunk. Redmans ​pic of the massive slope with the colour and flowing striations does it best for me.
 
Crazy busy week with grand kids here and work. Not much time for pondering which pic to vote for, but I think Redman's photo rocks. Really dig the wavy layers, like it was poured out and dried that way.

Stating the obvious here, but Redman grabbed the win.

Watcha got for us, Dave?
 
By my count, 10 pictures submitted, and 10 votes submitted as well.
Votes received:
Baatfam - 1
Dave R - 2
Kerrfunk - 2
Redman - 5

That makes redman's fourth win for 2019. Congrats!!

Here's where we've been. What do you have for us?

Kerrfunk's is great. But you spelled prepare wrong on your graffiti, but still a great pic.
Wasn't that hilarious? What you can't tell from the picture is that it's on such a tight curve that God (or a bear or a parked motorcycle) could be in your lane fifty feet down the road and you wouldn't know yet.

PREPAIR TO MEET GOD
 
Well, thanks , Folks.

am just back from an adventure last night and today.

will see what I can come up with later this evening.

On The Road.

I supposed, does not need to be parked on the center line.
 
That is a compelling image Redman. There is a tension. Energy of the lines sweep through the centre of the bike, vulnerably parked but resolutely planted dead square, blocking the road. That is more than a just pic of a bike, a road, some lines and greenery. It sets the bar for this round. Bravo.
 
Here is my picture for Picture of the Week. This is me goofing around at this year's Brown County rally. Dave (Redman) stopped to take a picture of the flooded road, I decided to go back and come back through the water for the camera. I felt like a little kid jumping in a puddle of water, I was laughing the whole time! 🙂

My first run on the Dragon in 2008, my Harley riding buddy had blown the curve hamming it up for the photographer. I am on my 2001 GSX1100G.

I dig the theme.

Riding one day with my buddies. We took each others' pictures at a certain point, just thinking, "y'know, I don't have many pictures of me actually riding..."
