I'm a little early, but I am not going to be around tomorrow so here goes.
This picture resonates with me, it reminds me of the bomb craters we would run across in the jungle.

I include enough of the comments to serve as a reminder:

Burque73 gets my vote this week, Judging just the photo. Everyone's special place has a special meaning to them. I set out a few days ago just before sunset to our town's reservoir. It's my go-to place I ride to when I don't want to be around people for a bit. I was looking for an image sort of like Roger's (at least that's what my mind's eye was thinking). When I got to the dirt parking lot at the reservoir, my front tire dug in, turned, and before I knew it, my bike was on the ground. I just sort of stepped off. Philosophical question: If a motorcycle falls in the woods, and no one's around to laugh at you, did it really happen? My busted left mirror says "Yeah, that just happened". So no picture for me this week. There were a bunch of overgrown weeds blocking any shot with my bike in view of the water coming over the dam, and the steam rising off the calm water above the dam at sunset. It was beautiful. You'll just have to take my word for it.Rich

Never put up a picture this week. Too new to the area to have a special place, and couldn't find anything in my files....Ah well...next week. On to the voting.
Several great pictures this week. Loved Downs', Trevor's, and Burgue73's photos...
But I must vote for Redman's. And although it is a good, well thought out shot, I must admit my vote is purely sentimental.
Knowing who Dave is remembering, brought up some deep feelings...Bob T. ~~ Play the GSR weekly photo game: Pic of Week Game

Your tip over trying to get into a good spot for a pic is all too familiar. My DL 1000 fell over at 6am in the mountains and I managed to get it back upright somehow. That made me rethink the giant adventure bike thing. The 850 has tipped over four times that I can think of. Not all for pic opportunities, but it happens for sure. Maybe that would make a fun theme sometime. I usually snap a pic of that moment just for my own recollection.
