    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 suppose cant see that are broke or worn, but here the parts are arrayed for a "still life" shot, well, a "still past-their-life" shot, in this case.

Had a new chain-drive bike (the 79) for 3 years, and have had 650G, 850G & 1100G (with some overlapp) the 38 years since. So the ratio displayed there seems about right.

And, Yes, there could be a couple more stators there.

Before anybody wants to inform me of the dangers of displaying license plate numbers, the newest one of mine is over 10 years expired.

Another week, another set of great photos...although some upsetting ones.

So let us vote....First the theme by Rich...

...this week?s theme. Broken. Interpret it however you want.







More to follow....
 
Vote for Trevor.

Why is this Not getting any easier ? ?

burque , baatfam, and a couple others got my interest.

Vote for Burque for thinking of that pose.
 
No kidding Dave. Not getting any easier even after thre third attempt at looking through these pics. I'm leaning toward Kerrfunk so that's my vote.. Maybe the least traumatic of the broken bike stuff, but looking at the pic I immediately think "BROKEN".

The look on the wooden guy's face in Bob's pic is priceless!
 
Burque73 and Bob Baatfam both put a different twist on the Broken them. Voting for Bourque 73 based on visual appeal.

That oil cap. I ended up removing the engine cover and taking it to a shop. They passed a torch over it for a few seconds and that unstuck it.

I'm going with redman's broken parts display cuz that's the sort of thing I'd do :)
 
my vote is for mr. kerrfunk. the beautiful bikes in the ditches was just too much for me.
 
My vote is for Cowboy...being owners of old GS bikes, we can all identify with that pic.
 
The crispness and colour in the creative image by Burque gets my vote.
Roger, you may have mentioned it before but what camera do you use?

Thanks for the vote. ��

Most often I use my phone for the pics. If I click on the photo and look at the data attached to it it shows it was taken with an SM-G920V (smartphone)

I do have a pretty decent hand me down digital camera as well. It's a Canon rebel something.
