Sample Block & Copy

The Challenge: A user (the first one will be yours truly) will pick a location, landmark, geographical feature, etc. to serve as the backdrop for your photo. Users will then post photos meeting the requirement in this thread for our ogling pleasure. The first user to submit a qualifying photo chooses the backdrop for the following month's challenge.

The goal: To encourage users to get out and ride and to document those rides with photos and, most of all, to have a little fun with the whole process.

The Rules:
1. The CB1100 must be the featured bike in the photo. Caption the photo with the date and the location.
2. Feel free to alter your photo to make it look better, but don't cut and paste into another photo just to qualify.
3. The photos should be new photos, not something you had on file and especially not something you posted elsewhere in this forum.
4. You may post multiple qualifying pictures in a month, but the background has to be different (ex. you can post two pictures of your bike in front of a train station, but they have to show two different stations)
5. Not really a rule, but don't stop trying to get a picture for a particular month just because someone beat you to the first post for that month. We want to see lots of pictures. 
6. The same user cannot pick the photo subject on consecutive months. If the first photo comes from the same user that posted the first photo in the prior month, the second user posting a photo will get to pick the next background subject.

Truly, 6 rules are probably 5 too many. Just go with the spirit of this challenge and get out and ride your motorcycle!



January Challenge (from EmptySea):

Let's see your CB1100 in front of a statue. Ready? Go!

01All righty, I'll play.
Rode out in the rain (and 45 degrees) for this collection of statues. There are three bronze gods chained to a wall in an out of the way office park in Falls Church, VA. I don't know why they are there or who they belong to. They are very intricately detailed and about 10 feet tall. You can't see them from the road and I had to ride up several sidewalks to get the shot. But that's just how much I care about sharing with you guys :-)

Bonus shot. This little guy is right there, too.

Those of us under a blanket of snow can't participate, but I'm sure many will still enjoy the contest vicariously.


Still rockin', rollin', and ridin' after all these years

That's awesome Bob! Those statues are one thing, but the donkey statue too...quite an eclectic collectio


Great pictures, Bob. And thanks for the extra effort in obtaining them.

Good work, Bob. 
And a good challenge MTC.


It is not perfect, but it does convey much of the impact of the oringinal post. I will keep working to find a more complete option. So far, I am striking out, sadly. Good night. David

The most sophisticated, smooth, perfectly engineered motorcycle I've ever owned. A pleasure in every way.
