        ELi69 for me this week... Straight from a horror film. Expecting to see the Blair Witch jump out or something...
        That's far off the beaten path my friend.

          There are at least a half dozen pictures this week that are the clear winner, ones I would hang on my wall.

          Since I can pick only one it will be Redman. I like the framing of the bike within the theme showing trees from all stages of their life cycle from sapling to standing snag.

            Look at it this way, Dave. When the theme is "grasses" you are going to be a lock.

                GustovH, with his old two-stroke slowly mouldering into the ground, like a felled tree itself.
                Am I right in thinking that's one of those Aermacchis that H-D sold under the AMC years?

                  you are correct Grimly, was dropped off at my place in return for some work I did on a bike. It still is in the same shape as it was new.

                      Many great shots this week. Jedz is spectacular but the Mighty V max overshadows the trees, Redman's pic is spot on but Gustav's did the trick for me this week.
                      sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
                      2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                      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.

                          Mighty V-Max overshadows everything.

                              Rob, we probably think we know who you’re voting for with that comment, but if you could go ahead and spell out the username, it would make the vote tallying easier.

                                Yikes, nearly forgot to vote. It's been a busy few days...

                                Voting for Redman's BMW tree ornament. I love the depth and how the bike is placed between the tree branches. Very cool setup, and one that some thought and searching was most likely involved.
