    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

OK, I was pretty sure it was East Tennessee or Kentucky..........
 
Holiday weekend for us which means a huge influx of tourists and their vehicles.
Late this afternoon it seems everybody has gone home. A lovely ride in the countryside.

 
These roads go absolutely nowhere.

. .. . The new theme is “The Road Less Traveled” (or travelled, depending on your location).


And the 18 (or so) entries

Man! Every picture is great!

I have to mention MarvinScott and CowboyScott.

MarvinSC and my pic both can see in the accumulation of leaves that hasn't been much traffic since the leaves fell there.

Many pics, BaatfamBob's especially, are about the road, and the road looks like a lightly traveled road.

Man, I can make good comments about each pic. Great topic, Rich82. This must be something all of us have interest in, and stop and take a picture of.
So many are great.

Gustov, looks like a less traveled road, and with the brake lights on also seems to say "Oh, should I be here?"

BurqueRoger sure shows the longest length of road with no traffic in sight, really chose a great place to pose the pic. Riding that road would get the idea was a long empty road, and choosing to stop at that place where can see the road in distance really presents it all in one shot.

But for a tie breaker, I will vote for Eli69 since the picture not only shows Less Traveled Road in multiple directions, but the scene also has the element of deciding which "Less Traveled Road" to take. I can just imagine stopping there and having to decide which way to go, each way could go looks "Less Traveled". The picture not only documents the condition/type of road, but the composition and all conveys more than that (for me anyway).

Thanks Rad! Clearly I am slacking lately....

Man! There is not one picture that I dont like !

You got that right....

18 photos, 18 very nice photos, 18 very nice photos that would make a cool 18 month 2021 calendar. :idea:

Thinking...
 
I vote for NOREG.👍 If you look at his GPS, you can see the road he's on goes to nowhere. 🤔
 
Gustovh side car rig on the dirt road gets my vote this week but as others have said, not a bad pic in the bunch this week!
 
Mr. Noreg again. To me all his pics look exotic. Isn't this where vikings come from?

That would be perfect. Just write off the last six months of 2020 and start 2021 already.

MarvinSC for me this week.
 
Great shots, all. And thanks for playing. So much to like and so hard to choose just one. But I will cast my vote for dorkburger. I absolutely love that shot, Glen
 
Rich82.
They're all good, it was a hard pick, but Rich's angle on that one is just right.
 
All of them great pics as usual, difficult to pick a winner but i'm going with Mr Murdochs CBX. I just love those pipes :rolleyes:
 
Voting for Norgeg. Looks like a desolate and beautiful road with a potential for peril. If that is taken at dusk, not dawn, it only adds to the peril factor.
