You may already be a winner

Greetings to all cycling forummers from Not Another Cycling Forum. The time has come for another contest. Write the best caption for this photo



and have your caption appear on the same thread as that photo. What prize could be sweeter? But wait, there's more. I will personally photoshop a NACF jersey with your head on it (you supply the head).



This has been posted on multiple forums both in a spirit of interfora harmony and to ensure the widest possible net has been cast for the best captions. (Note that NACF is what it says on the tin; this is not a membership drive.) Winners will be announced after the last entry has been received. Thank you and good evening or whatever the time of day is when you read this.

Dudley Moore statue unveiled.

Olympic Gold medal winner Bradley Wiggins felt a little overdressed when spotted shopping in Stoke yesterday.

Royal Mail gets it badly wrong when told to paint Sir Wiggo's box gold.....

ArdyOCD

Rod Stewart, the next british cycling prodigy aiming for gold? Maybe not.

The full horror of losing that last round of truth or dare finally dawned on Willy Wonka. He had no choice but to buy those Cornish pasties wearing all of the Jimmy Savile memorabilia he had so brazenly "won" in last years' auction.

The I'mstill Gold cobbles prove too tough for some riders.

Dave misunderstood a Road Buying Advice thread stating "You can get an extra 10% off at Wiggle when you become a gold customer".

The winner has been announced in our house organ, but I won't keep you in suspense: it was Boris Johnson. There is no truth to the rumour that the London mayor was only chosen because I happened to have a clean head of his lying around. A jersey tailored to Mr Johnson's physique was not available at the time of going to press.

2nd prize is shared between hippy of LFGSS for "I use a fisheye for this shot fella," judged favourably for its technical merit, and rhb, also of LFGSS, who was very fast off the mark with "Lesson: don't piss off your powder coater."

Hippy gets this .jpg certificate, which grants honorary credentials to teach frisbee. I have a small supply.



rhb is free to claim a meal at Tibits, a veggie eatery. Just tell staff you've participated in the NACF 'golden man' caption competition and I'm sure they will accommodate you. [Note: if the cashier appears to reach for a button underneath the counter when you attempt to redeem your prize, you might want to dash out the exit, which is fortunately close to the registers.]

Honourable mention goes to everyone who took part, including jordan_217, Cornerblock, ArdyOCD, Blacktemplar, dmclite-3.0, Mr Goo, gaz, Ray, 661-Pete, Audax67, Mick F, Canardly, Eccentrica Gallumbits, clockwork_killa, adroit, Aroogah, cliveo, ParryMan, Rod Munch, blue fleet, marcom, Jonerfun, wiganwill, sumo, and Plastic Pedals. RonB of BikeRadar, this one's for you. Jogler of Yacf led me to Cycling Cartoons by Dave Walker via the Falmouth Wheelers, which was nice, and Si of CTC prompted one last bit of (admittedly crude) photoshopping:



Finally, happy new year to those using the Chinese calendar. Live long and prosper.
