There you go a closer version, water towers are not the easiest thing to get in shot are they? (I had to stand in a ditch looking like a wierd predator to get the original)
I love the idea of the picture challenge, does anyone object if I blatently steal the rules and start the same on the TDM forum?Hey we all share the same clunky gearbox issues.....

Go ahead! I don't know if was original to FOC-U anyway, but anything that encourages people to get out on their bikes is a good thing :thumbup

Unfortunately (as mentioned elsewhere) the farm next to the Wave Pool in Bristol had already done their harvesting, so unless a picture of my bike with a couple of tractors on an artic or a JCB Hedge Cutter will do, I think we need a new challenge... :(

I was planning on going out tomorrow to do this, but with all the idiots panic buying petrol because the media have overblown a few stations running out due to a lack of HGV drivers, I don't know if I'm going to be able to fill up!

I'm going to have to start tanking up when I come back from a ride instead of the next time I go out, it seems...  :rolleyes
