    My second thought was that might be what such a picture was taken for, but that fact is not really evident in the picture.
    I did think about that, that a person might not guess the theme based on the picture. I'm okay with that.

              I will start with a new to me bike, in fact this is a pic from the Ebay ad when I purchased my new to me GS850G out of Brewster Ohio in 2005. Then I had to tell my Wife what I had done and make arraingements to go pick it up..........

              Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                        Thanks you for your participation.

                        But, which is the entry into the game...? and which is just talking about it some more.....
                        If multiple pics, most folks will assume the first pic is the entry.

                          Rules:

                          1. Today is Saturday, I'll start with a theme.
                          2. Saturday to Thursday is submissions time. Everyone else can post one (and only one) picture that meets the theme.
                          3. Friday is voting day. Vote for the picture you like the most. You can vote even if you didn't participate with a pic during the week. (voting closes at midnight, Pacific time zone).
                          4. In case of a tie during the voting day, the first vote that breaks the tie the day after will decide the winner.
                          5. Saturday, the winner of the week posts a new theme using an example picture.
                          6. The example picture ALSO participates.
                          7. Any bike can participate... not only GS's (as long as it was yours when the pic was taken)
                          8. The date of the picture does not matter, or who took the pic. You can use new or old pics as long as you've got the bike in the pic (or as much of the bike as necessary for the theme) and they meet the week's theme.


                          I'm not trying to be an a$$, just want everyone to have fun playing the game with the rules that have been laid out from the beginning. This is from post #1.

                            This is a photo of my GS1000 taken in 2004 when I actually put it back on the road full time. I bought it from a friend in the fall of 1993, rode it a bit that fall and then squirreled it away in a garage for later use. I had other bikes to ride, life got busy and other than firing it up once a year it remained parked until the winter of 03/04 when I resurrected it for full time use. So at that time it was pretty much a new to me ride and I've been riding it ever since. A mishap a couple of years later saw the unfortunate demise of the "S" fairing.

                                Just over five years ago I bought my first brand new motorcycle in almost 30 years. A BMW K1300R Carbon Fibre SE...I was new back to riding and realized I was riding a lot of miles to only have older bikes.
                                I went in to look at the S model with the fairing and they should me a pic of this bike....I ordered it on the spot...never even sat on one before...lol...the bike has been amazing! 75,000 kms on it now and it runs like the day I bought it.

                                The dealer called me when it arrived so I could see it getting uncrated.
