Very very nice CB750R - now if you had a photo of it against a dramatic scenic backdrop (and I know you have those in BC) then you would stand a good chance of getting voted into the Calendar.

Thanks Andy,  I will have to see what I can do for ya. We have a bit of a hard time getting good photos when twisty pavement keeps our attention on carving corners!

Andy - what do you think about setting up a poll to decide what shots make the cut?

Sure its a possibility - how would you suggest doing the poll? Just list the 12 months and pick photos from this thread ? 12 bikes...and one for the cover.

Lets say there are 30 bikes in the running - photos have to adhere to the original suggestion and title of this thread - somewhere scenic and ON THE ROAD...not in your garage or driveway ;).....so is it a poll of 30 bikes/month? Or have a subset for Fall? Summer? Spring? Winter? Suggestions welcome!

cheers
Andy

For the sake of simplicity, I'd suggest the four seasons and the cover.
Members would nominate bikes, for example I nominate your bike for Fall. Take up to ten nominations per season, have a poll and the top three are in.
Each poll would be open for 1 week.

Other suggestions welcome.

Looks real to me; you can see the shadow of his right hand above the front tire at 11:00.

Hey Don R I love the shot of the bike in the field with the corn behind it - great photo! What time of year is that?

thanks

That was late fall 2010, most of the corn had been picked by then. I love riding when it is a little cool and you can wear a nice warm jacket. Missed the fine print. I'm out.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!

japanese ad thai riders of the 125 and 250 scooters do some crazy two up and single trick riding on their bikes on public streets. Plenty of youtube videos.  Even saw one of a guy on a C 70 passport pop wheelie witb passenger and then driver standing on rear footpeg and seat maintaining the wheelie for a couple minutes as passenger took various poses behind and in front of driver and switched places with driver at the end.

Look at the shoelace hanging over the seat....and the shadow of his left hand at the muffler.  Looks real to me too.
