Photo Contest

whats funny is that I know that Trailer park...been there a few times with a sheriff buddy of mine...those things have been sitting there for a "few years" if memory serves me correctly....
That's one challenge down... how about the other one and make it a daily double....bike in a living space ( I interpret that as if you have a couch or a some kind of furniture in the garage or carport...that equals living space....)

 

whats funny is that looks exactly like the trailer park my brother-in-law lived in in Glendale. I had to do a double take, i thought it was his front yard lol

 

three days is up on the other challenge so I am going to declare Lazy ass in a trailer park...the winner......

next challenge Lazy...

 

OK, so the next challenge is a bit more active than most of the others that I've seen on here lately...


Option #1, for those who are lucky enough to be in a climate like me where everyday riding doesn't freeze your nuts off: A rolling pic of you :vtr2:down the road, freeway, street, boulevard, etc... anything except a parking lot or other "dead zone". You don't exactly have to be pulling a gnarley onesie like Goose Macho here, just need to be like Willie Scoots here: and enjoying the breeze sliding up from the windscreen. Also, the photo must have population to it, in other words it needs to have more than just you in it, preferrable multiple vehicles driven around or alongside you, people in the background, walking or whatever. And for those in the outlying rural areas, :llama: DO count!

Option #2, for those of you who are either waiting for the :smow: to melt or the temps just haven't gotten above 50 degrees for the past several months: A pic of someone elses :VFR1200F:, either parked or if your lucky enough, :vtr2:. Stipulations are that it must be complete and rideable (not partially disassembled or missing parts) and it must be tagged and registered (not sitting out somewhere with a for sale sign on it or from a dealers showroom).


So, the object of the challenge is to get off your :bootyshake: and strike a pose while enjoying a cruise on your :VFR1200F: or go out for a cruise in your :car: and snap a pic of someone elses baby while your out and about.

Easy enough, right?

I'm a bit picky, so please date stamp your entry.

Good luck!!!

 

Good Challenge

 

Tomorrow is public holiday here.
I will take care of this -if someone grants me a time extension.
Lazy?

 

No time extension needed, I got this one. This is my housemate's Ninja, taged, titled, insured, and fully rideable. Parked next to my girl.


Your challenge, should you choose to accept it is a picture of your motorcycle from a funny angle, some specific part of the bike that you find interesting or attractive, I will give examples:




This should be an easy one for anybody sunny or covered in :smow:

Extra bonus points(not required just for fun): Put something on your bike that dosen't belong there such as: a tennis ball stuck up underneath the fairing, a garden gnome placed somewhere funny. Get creative, item should be somewhat clearly visible in the photo but not too obvious.

 

you mean like this?


or this?


or this?


or how about this?


maybe this?



and the one with something on it that doesn't belong.....ound:


This is not for the win I took these last year...just more examples of what I think Metallick is looking for

happy hunting !!!!!!!!!1

 

Very nice examples Crust, ound: @ last one too!!

 

I think I may have had to be a bit more specific when I said that it had to be someone elses ride. I put the pic of the front of the VFR in place of the actual "VFR" and so my intention was a pic of someone elses VFR parked/riding/whatever in full running condition. Leave it to me to leave a friggin loop hole! Great lawyer skills, Mettalican... and therefore I must pass the torch along to you, Sir.

*although I was really hoping for an active pic of someone riding their baby down the street... love pics like that.:frown:*

Would like to see what you snapped there, racostan...

 

Do these work?

 

Ummm, oops. First of all :doh: I owe everyone an apology, namely Raco and Lazy. I was drinkin and only quickly skimmed the challenge. The only part of the challenge that I got right was that it was someone elses operating motorcycle. It sure as hell ain't no VFR1200 though so technically I should not have won. That wasn't any sneaky loop hole finding on my part, just stupidity. This was a complete accident and lack of readin' skillz on my part, I apologise again for the un-intentional cheating.

Raco, I would also love to see any pics you got, hopefully they're more correct than mine too!!

I think going backwards at this point in the challenges would be confusing, and JSzczesniak seems to have gotten some kick ass pictures, so ya'lls call on that one.

 

Is that a Sammie Winter Lager? Good taste my friend, I've been tearin through some of that stuff :drinker: Now it's all out of season and drank up out:

 

I say we move on, and that JS now has the ball as he did meet the criteria for the given challenge.

No apology needed, Metallican. Beer happens! LOL

And yes, Raco... I believe I speak for everyone on here when I extend an open invitation to share the parade pics you got during the holiday there. *hint* *hint*

 

indeed on all accounts

 

So - aside from taking some new pics so you guys (I know you got worried) know that I still do indeed exist, I was playing around and check these out. Odd, I call this Ride Reflection, a picture of the White Knight, and then the reflection mirror only. Hmm, I know very artsy of me, yes.

In other news, I have renamed my ride from "Pearl", to, in honor of my racist friend Wreslter, "White Knight", since he has such a problem with bikes of a certain "color"

Next challenge should the judges accept my previous entries shall be: Picture of your ride by some big ass equipment! The train picture was cool enough, now it's time to find a large bulldozer, earthmover, tractor, farm combine, anything large and worthy of doing some damage to mutha earth! ....................... Let's get em!

White Knight Power

 

I'm always in awe of the big earth movers.... now where did I see that D9 sitting on the side of the road????

 

Ok guys, since the overwhelming majority asked for these, here they are:
A few comments/disclaimers

• I live in "the future" (i.e. 13 hours ahead of EST) and sometimes I can use that to my advantage:
  I asked for the time extension before going to sleep, so by the time I woke up Crusty had posted his pictures -therefore I didn't even bother to take them.
• The public holiday was Chinese New Year. They say here: "Gong Xi Fa Cai" if you have no idea how to pronounce that just say: "Going to see the fat guy". Every one will smile at you thinking you can speak perfect Mandarin.
• Finally, I went today to take the pictures -with time stamp as stipulated in the rules. Note that some were taken upside-down... Not an easy task for my wife (or anyone) of taking pictures while riding a bike.
  Unfortunately, there is no parade or anything like that.

JS, My wife is also "artsy" and had a similar idea with the mirror


For those of you who failed geography, Singapore is an island... note the big ships parked outside.


More artsy pics.
If you comment on her riding squidly, I would support you; but if someone dares to say something about her boobs, I will kill him!


Marina Bay Sands in the background...


This is the ASM (Arts and Science Museum)


This is an ERP gantry (Electronic Road Pricing) in other words, an urban toll. They are all over the city, and if you ask a taxi driver, he will tell you it stands for "Every Road Pays" or "Everyday Robbing People"


The Marina Bay Sands hotels


Fantastic sign... It would be hard to disagree.




Picture taken with my superwife's x-ray vision.

And nothing to do with the VFR, but tought you guys might be interested:


This was the rehearsal of the fireworks for CNY (Chinese New Year) on Tuesday night.


Panorama made out of 3 stitched pictures

 

Boobs, what boobs. All I see a squiddy with front crash bumpers and that's it................Don't kill me Raco. Great pics man, tell the lady thanks for helping participate in ye ol photo contest. More spiffy negative pics too fellers, they're cool (yes I'm a dork)

 

Sczcesniak, what the f**k are you talking about. Were you drinking when you wrote this?? We all know the fastest color is red, winning red. Am I to understand that OH6PearlVFR is going to change to White Knight? Just let me know so I can contact your silly butt. Red Power forever!!!!
