Finally had a decent ride with Dash, and PZ I might add.  Here is my submission for the calendar this year.  You have my permission to use it Andy.  Taken in Gorda, CA.  Hope it makes the cut, some excellent submissions this year!

And here's a couple more. The last one is me and my buddy Thom after riding in the freezing rain for hours. Look like we're having fun?  :D

Ok last one I promise...

Not that I think this should be in a calendar, but it's a memorable photo for me. Sure it's not on pavement or a legit burnout, but I was in the middle of the country and had to do something...

Pardon the clutter in the garage, but I really like this photo of my bike. Maybe others do, too?

Spectacular pic, Rb... I almost like shots like this better than  a completed bike... more of a story involved in some ways.

Maybe we need a calendar covering bikes in progress?  ;)

RB and Ron, I bet if I took any of my bikes apart like that when I finally got it all back together I would somehow have a box of parts left over that I didn't use :-\

I posted these elsewhere, but I suppose these could be in a calendar. Maybe for the early winter months.

Andy

Just a request from an old guy, could you choose a calendar with much larger font? 

Thanks for your effort on this project every year!

Looking forward to this year's calendars for sure!  One other request for you consideration: could you start the week on Sunday rather than Monday?  Still throws me off even after a year....  Love the calendars irregardless.

Wow! You ran a clipping path around all that?  :o  Great shot...

You forgot to do in between the spokes!   :) ;)

I like the idea of doing the "pile-O-parts" calendar and this would be the cover.
