    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.

So my personal challenge is to only post new pics or pics that are no older than a week old here is one from a 200 mile ride I took on my T120 a few days ago to my best friend's house. This is a view of his Backyard. Mount Mansfield the highest mountain kissing the cotton clouds. Believe it or not they did produce rain later in the day and I got soaked, we have had one of the coldest and wettest starts of the year, ever. Days like this quickly turn to rain and getting soaked is just the norm it seems...

Still finding miles! See many of you in a couple weeks!!!

Cheers,
 
Carter, That's a great pic. We love that you've joined the game. We need more to join.

I'll just throw this out there and you can do with it as you wish. There are rules to the game, outlined in post # 1 of this thread, copied below. See rule 8. That said, we leave it up to the voters to decide the winning pic. Voters decide whether the pic is worthy based on a set of criteria that is personal to each voter. Some of those being whether the pic matched the theme and whether or not if follows the "rules". Rules get broken all the time, but we still like to see at least part of your bike in the pic. If there's a fraction of a clutch lever hanging out in the dark area at the bottom, then never-mind all of this. ;) You can replace you pic or leave it up. That's totally up to you.

And no, I'm not the POTW police. Just a guy who enjoys the game.

Rules:
  1. Today is Saturday, I'll start with a theme.
  2. Saturday to Thursday is submissions time. Everyone else can post one (and only one) picture that meets the theme.
  3. Friday is voting day. Vote for the picture you like the most. You can vote even if you didn't participate with a pic during the week. (voting closes at midnight, Pacific time zone).
  4. In case of a tie during the voting day, the first vote that breaks the tie the day after will decide the winner, unless of course one party wishes to concede to the other.
  5. Saturday, the winner of the week posts a new theme using an example picture.
  6. The example picture ALSO participates.
  7. Any bike can participate... not only GS's (as long as it was yours when the pic was taken)
  8. The date of the picture does not matter, or who took the pic. You can use new or old pics as long as you've got the bike in the pic (or as much of the bike as necessary for the theme) and they meet the week's theme.
Summarizing:
  • Saturday to Thursday: Pics that meet the week's theme are submitted.
  • Friday: Vote for your favorite pic of the week.
  • If you submit a pic for the week keep an eye on the votes you get, or at least check the thread on Saturday to see if you've won.
  • Saturday: The winner posts a new theme using an example photo.
 
Riding the beemer cuz I messed with the electric stuff on the new 1100 and it wouldn't start. Always somethin.

The clouds are nice but there's a haziness that is barely noticeable but is caused by the smoke from current wildfires.

Couldn't get out to ride this week, so had to dig up an old one. There's clouds in it, although not spectacular... This was just before we left Sturgis to ride home. I'll submit this one so I can get my goose egg and eat. LOL
