Amusing Shapes with your Strava Traces

bernithebiker

To help pass the time on those boring recovery rides, you should try to think artistically and create aesthetically pleasing drawings with your red ride trace.

To kick things off here's a nice pear that I drew the other day.

I've been trying to do a reasonable likeness of a set of gonads for weeks now, but I just don't think we have the roads for it.

Perhaps a prize to the first person to manage it?.....(No MTB, that would be too easy).

Glad I am not alone in trying this

I'm also glad I'm not the only one to be thinking about this.

It would be a better challenge on Strava than "how many miles can you ride in a month"

While not a perfect representation, one of my mates dubbed this the "[male chicken] and ball route".

Not even a bad route, managed to get 2 hours of tempo in, giggling to myself the whole way around.

Not being familiar with your 'region' but does this make Swindon the ar5e end of Britain

Maybe a lap or two round the 'ring' road to warm up is in order.

I almost too embarrassed to add my effort considering the brilliance of this one, but here is anyway:

Purely accidental dog drawing - I need to work on the tail.

Quick spin up the M6 should sort that

Certain contenders have been asking about their 'prize', so I am pleased to report that FroomesEdgar is currently in the lead with his excellent set of meat and 2 veg.

Entries close on 28th Feb - any kind of picture is valid, it need not be genitalia, and any doubt on the winner can be settled by popular vote.

The prize will be £100!!*











*off a Frenchberry holiday, sorry, fresh out of Wiggle vouchers.

genius! froomes edgar, brilliant. surprised no ones doen a pair of tits yet.

the guys in cisco are at a distinct advantage in particlar, and states in general over us, at least for words.

Mikey23

One of my contacts did a nice pair of tits... Or more correctly a bra, although it could have been a pair of spectacles. Also a couple of funky dinosaurs. Shame I don't know how to lift them and post here. Can anyone help?
