    That was bloody quick! I'll accept it if you've just been out for it. And for the kickass horn!

    Challenge?

    Trust me, there are a couple of boats in the background there.

    If it's a win I'll be having your bike and a train.

    Off you pop.

    What a suprise..... A picture requiring someone else to man (or woman) the camera ends up grinding the thread to a halt!

    Couldn't anyone just use a tripod (or lean it against something) and put the camera on delay?

    And then hope you get the shot? How many times are you going to try before you just give the f**k up?

    Ok the Rules fall back to me.

    I win with a pic of my bike with some Animal sign.

    img1183m.jpg

    So lets see your bike with some interesting animal sign. (NO hoof/paw prints).

    continue.

    I don't follow...

    >NEW RULE – Challenges are valid for 1 week, if not done in time the previous winner will select another challenge.

    Which means...an_original_name chooses.

    an_original_name hasn't picked one, can we have a new challenge?

    Oh sorry, I was expecting Nick to agree/disagree before I set a new challenge.

    Erm, something easy... Your bike leaning against a shed.

    Could you define shed? My mate has an absolute rustbucket of a car that is know as a shed
    What if your dreams and fears existed in the same place? What if to get to heaven, you had to brave hell? What if everything you've ever wanted cost you everything you've ever achieved? Would you still go there?

    I'd just say a large box-shaped object that tools and other assorted shit gets dumped in. If this car is that bad, I'd like to see it. :)

    If so, your bike next to an inappropriate sign

    If that's a win, I want a photo of your bike covered in mud. As in completely.

    Bloody hell, i've just gone right through this entire thread.....i was thinking when i get to the end i'm gonna go out tomorrow and do whatever it is that the last winner has asked for and get involved.....


    ....and the winner has asked for a muddy bike in the middle of "summer" when the trails are all dry and dusty :( Maybe next week then!

    :wink::lol:

    Have you managed to escape the deluges of rain that are currently drowning (what seems like) every other part of the UK then?

    ah we have had a bit to be fair, but nothing to really get the mud flowing...more like just make it a little slick in places. The mud seems to be staying pretty solid or at least drying out very quickly!

    The trails are great round here at the mo :)

    How is that sign inappropriate? I'd say that's a fail.

    Think more crud catcher

    Well we had pretty much the biggest storm so far this year yesterday so there's a bit of mud.

    Ok, depending on where you are; your bike covered in mud/dust.

    Seeing as your photo didn't meet the standard, the previous challenge still stands
    Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Epsilon.

    Well sadly, that's the nearest signs get to inappropriate where I live so I just gave it my best shot.
