I like that pic., but it probably contravenes rule number 5.

5) Pictures must be taken while OFF of the bike.

(What kind of sad bastard am I? ; even knowing that there is a rule number 5??)

But I appreciate the reasoning behind that rule, we don't want to try and turn this into some kind of Gixxer owner challenge.

Demons call.

This time it can count.

Rule 5 must not be broken again in the interest of safety. Besides, screen shots from riding vids are too easy to get.



How is it you managed 66 mph on that road? I would have doubled that and passed that truck like it was parked!

I would not be opposed, and suggested it before, to have the challenger post a pic of their challenge for others to copy.

Lets keep challenger pics optional for now, not mandatory.
I'm aware of that. :-) For that matter people can just take any old pic and not even play the "game". But since it is ideally a game.... I was just thinking a slight rule change or two might make the game more interesting for the few that like to participate more regularly and it make others pick more interesting challenges rather than certain unachievable or just plain silly ones. Such as providing a pic before or after. Just a thought, no biggie.

Oh don't worry! We did, this was just the picture I snagged on my 400 mile trip to Eureka, Alaska! We had just rounded they bend and there was the truck. ALOT of traffic because hunting season was starting.

Next Challenge: Your bike with a water tower in the background

Here you go. I know it's a goofy looking water tower, but it's where I get my water. :-)

Up next:

YBNT a golf cart

Yes, it was a good call back in the day CBRfenatic. It has given people from all over the world the opportunity to participate in an ongoing challenge that has sparked some interesting discussions and pictures.

(And we all love the pictures).

So, where's your golf cart mate?

I live just over a hill from a golf course so if my wrist permits I'll see if I have the time to take a spin at the parking lot. Morning temps have started to go below zero so probly no more commuting by bike this year for me.
