Thanks Chris, ordered mine; with the coupon code it was $16 shipped (regular mail).

I did as well and the coupon code worked perfectly ($16 out the door with regular shipping).  Thank you for doing this Chris I know it is a lot of work

Looks fantastic!  Just let us know if you'd like full size files of the pics emailed to you.

Thanks again for your time and energy devoted to this project, it's much appreciated.

You bring up a good point... I just created an email specifically for sending images to:

sohc4.calendar@gmail.com  - Everyone can send high resolution pictures as attachments to this email address.

It's also ok to just link/include to the image in this thread if someone already has the image stored online (Picasa, Photobucket, DeviantArt, etc.) - I think some of the images above are like this... Assuming I can click on them and download the high resolution version.

I DO NOT expect to be in a calendar but I only have one pic of my bike and I wish to share it.  I was going through float issues, hence the rag beneath, but it's a great bike and an everyday rider.  "Survivor" I guess is the term.  And for fun, my Twin - Maxine.  I love my bikes . . . don't haze me on the rust - I live at the beach without a garage.  I do cover them tho - horses need their blankets. And everything is mechanically sound.

just got my BOTM calendar - kinda excited . . .

If anyone wants me to retouch out some distracting elements in some of their photos just PM me. When files go to print many times things stand out more. For example, a hose laying in the grass or maybe to improve contrast or color. I'm a retoucher.

I was encouraged by a member on the Hi Po side to post a picture for consideration of being on the calender. So... here's my contribution. If selected, you have my permission to use this image.

This picture is of my 78F model dragbike. The picture was taken during qualifying runs at the Manufacturers Cup race in the Super Eliminator class. I was fortunate enough to set a new national record in the CB/SS class of 10.60@120.46mph. This race was held on the 15th day of November, 2015.

Thanks for the opportunity.

Late to the party, but here's a couple pics from yesterday in SW VA on my 750 K8...
Hey brewsky,
Not to thread jack but would you mind sending me a PM about those luggage racks and panniers (sp?) you have on that bike?  I've thought of getting some for my K8 as well and those look really good on yours.

Chris,
Just ordered my BOTM calendar.  Thank you for going to the trouble to put that together.  We are all very appreciative and excited about both of these calendars.

Now, just make sure that photo of you leaning into the curve makes it into this one.  I know sometime altruistic people such as yourself don't want to overly emphasize themselves but that's a shot that would be worthy in any calendar.  And I think that shots like yours and Frank's drag photo with his wheel coming off the ground at launch are awesome to show that these old bikes still have some punch in em!

Great work again.  Thanks for all you do!

Thank Rafi,

I still haven't finished the "regular" calendar - just been tied up with work/holiday/family stuff.  But I'll definitely get it completed before January.
