So by popular demand here it is.

The most intense and serious subject in January.

Who has the best avatar.

Pick wisely, who you choose will speak largely of your character and hint at any 'feelings' for the person you nominate.

Oh and you can't nominate yourself.

A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game

    I think Cori and I should get a special mention for having ourselves as our avatars.

    EDIT: Does that sentence make sense? I thought not...

    ITB uses his own pic for his avatar, as does Attica...

    And Biondino.

    OT - That's how tweed is meant to look. I wear some for work but never ridden in it.

    OT - Clevedonia, that isn't you skinning a sloth (me) on the Portishead coast road at least once a week is it?

    If I ever meet ITB I will be disappointed if he doesn't look & sound like his avatar.

    Nah, my commute is in to Bristle, that said I could always divert if there's a scalp to be had. :twisted:
