A reiteration of the rules.
1. All challenges must be of YOUR bike and a landmark, or something obscure or creative, something most people can ride to in their area.
2. Picture has to be taken after challenge is made.
3. Challenge is good for a week; if it is not met after that time, the previous picture poster picks a new challenge.
4. Nothing illegal to be challenged.
5. Keep comments to a minimum; if you comment, post the current challenge in bold type after your comment.
6. No repeat challenges.
7. No other bikes can be used, eg, your bike next to a Ducati. Some exceptions will be allowed, eg, your bike next to a bike cop.
8. Only 1 person can win each challenge; any other entrants will not be counted, due to throwing the whole game off track and adding challenges that don't stand.
9. If any dispute about a challenge occurs, 3 oks from others settles the challenge.
Remember, this thread is supposed to get people to want to go ride straight away and beat others to the challenge - be creative, but be sensible about it.
Have fun Foccers!
Your bike at a National Trust or English Heritage property
Post by: fazersharp on 05 February 2017, 04:01:27 pm
Kirby Castle English Heritage 2 pictures
And Stoneywell National Trust although the carpark for it is off site and you wait for the shuttle bus to come and get you and there isn't a 1 sign with the trust logo and the name of the place so I got a picture of each for that one as well.

How about your bike beside an Ice Cream van with the sea in the background. Preferably with you eating an ice cream.

Fazersharp, come of it there is nowhere in the UK further than 70 miles from the sea :lol
Actually by road the nearest bit of coast is 76 miles and that is the nature reserve of The Wash so the most likely place and nearest for me is Skegness which is 96 miles, so I will leave this one to someone else but I think this weeks end is the best possible chance anyone will have of that particular challenge. But like has been said the problem is that those little boothes and stalls have the cream market all sewn up.
Out on the Norfolk coast from Caister along to Hemsby there is actually a converted land rover ice cream van that drives along the beach.

I'm sure in the original rules it says if it hasn't been completed in a week then there needs to be a new challenge issued? Maybe about time the last winner made up a new one?:agree Can we have it less convoluted this time, none of your bike and you with a griffin riding unicorn chasing a leprechaun, whilst eating ambergris.

Lew I am guessing here you haven't read the rules do you? More specifically the rule number seven... :lol
7. No other bikes can be used, eg, your bike next to a Ducati.

I saw a footpath heading into the rape field and my plan was to go in a couple of feet, take the pic and then push the bike back, but I entered the path and it sloped away so I couldn't get the side stand down and it was too steep to paddle the bike back so I had to keep going to find a flat spot and then a spot to turn the bike around :rollin
Not sure what the walkers made of a sports tourer heading towards them with a leather clad biker on board. I gave them a friendly wave ans said good morning as I passed.:D

But I am sure if you check out some of my photos you may think the same thing, but my ones are on the day although the picture information may disagree with the dates. Surely this is possible if the SD card has not been formatted for some time.?? Oh and yes Fazersharp well played and your post is good enough for a new challenge.

It can be a public building ,Railway station , Church tower with clock, but the clock has to be showing the correct time.

Whats the favoured image hosting site to use these days? I've been struggling to find one that just works, so I can embed images straight in - as Val has above.
(after photofucket started charging $300+ for the privilege).
I use Flickr. Its free and has a feature you can get forum tags for sharing.
The solution is don't use the phone Flickr app. Use the browser on your phone like this:
Go to your web browser and browse to Flickr. When you are there chose the desktop browser option. Once it's loaded, tap and hold the Refresh icon in the URL bar and you'll see the option to "Request Desktop Site" at the bottom.
There problem solved you will have now a forum share option when you see the picture from your photostream.
Click share arrow:

Copy/paste the BBcode tags from there here.

@Val - Is Flickr still working well for you?
I've been trying to link to my Photos from there, but the BBCode options have completely disappeared. :(
Only seeing Share via email etc, which doesn't give you the .jpg link, just a link to your Photostream.
I've tried browsing the site using "Desktop", plus also couple of different browsers, doesn't help.

It doesn’t count as it was taken in May 2013, but this is mine in a scenery storage shed on the ring road at Television Centre.
TVC had closed a few months earlier, but as the nerve centre for much of the broadcast chain a lot of equipment remained in service until the end of November together with a few engineers to operate it. And one to maintain it.
In fact, once the equipment was decommissioned they couldn’t find a room elsewhere for the maintenance engineer, so they all left and I remained in the virtually deserted building until September 2014. I loved it.
After that it was demolished and redeveloped as hotel, office and retail space and hundreds of overpriced apartments, just 3 studios remain. :'(

Plus looking quite deserted, no-one else around. Convert photo to Black & White, with a little Sepia, in Photoshop, plus erase out the Vauxhall ! 8) :lol ...

That looks a Retro / Timeless photo, with the faired Fazer on the left and quite retro building to the right.Sepia I can do... replacing the car with the canteen entrance it has obscured is more of a challenge. :lol

It looks a little like the weird sky/outlook we had the other day, with the Red sun. Fantastic job on the edits.
Based on this effort put in (plus still a workplace photo), you should get the nod (mission fulfilled), and get to choose the next challenge! :thumbup

Doesn't have to be a Fazer mate just a member of the Foc-u forum.
As for the picture of say it's good enough. Not exactly flooded other entries are we haha

A reiteration of the rules.
1. All challenges must be of YOUR bike and a landmark, or something obscure or creative, something most people can ride to in their area.
It doesn't specify that it has to be a Fazer.

Okay here we go is this a winner.
👍👍👍👍👍
Post by: lew600fazer on 15 November 2017, 04:43:35 pm
Okay seeing as the weather is getting a bit on the cold side.
So the next Challange is your bike at the NEC bike show 18-26 November 2017, failing that your mug shot visiting the bike show but you must be sitting either on aYamaha model or at least at the Yamaha stand.

Well as there seems to be support for the challange unless I hear otherwise the challange is set
Don't forget if you are not on your bike then it has to be either on a Yamaha model at the Yamaha stand or aphoto of the Yamaha stand with you in it. But if someone goes to the show on there bike they will be higher up the pecking order so as to keep the spirit of the post going.

Well, if that’s your bike (and I suspect not), you’ve won.
Otherwise, your lad had better pick the next round. Just point out that the first rule of the picture challenge is “YOUR bike and…” . :)

Having made the suggestion that we stick to the rules, I’m not accepting a win for this round on the basis of a photo that didn’t meet the requirements three rounds ago. :rollin
Definitely your choice for the next challenge Red98.
