Don't tell me me he's gone for a ride out for miles and misread the challenge?!! Are we now waiting til he actually finds a dam?  :lol

Challenge is still open if someone else got it - you'd best hurry Fizzy! (Hmmm, wonder what I can find on Saturday....)

You know if you went out on that middle earth ride out that you will be passing right past a reservoir dam at Rutland water and you could have a mass photo challenge

Wheres the reservoir nick ;)

its this one here: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Anglezarke+Reservoir/@53.635176,-2.575754,3a,75y,61.3h,90t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sg1WqyLIhvT4Dv76mo6ueTA!2e0!4m2!3m1!1s0x487b0b92f1c416c7:0xb784f46d680edf9e!6m1!1e1

take it or leave it im not arsed


Cheeky bugger!
Not like you didn't enlarge the photo after first posting it  :rolleyes
And the challenge was "next to a reservoir dam" - the reservoir is not required to be in the pic  ;)

And then I could be REALLY pedantic and point out that the challenge was "your bike NEXT TO a reservoir dam", not 2 foccin miles away from it!  :rolleyes :lol

Ok, in the proper spirit of the game and to save further argument, if 3 people ok it Fizzy, you got it. Fair enough?

BBB, Fazersharp = x2 oks

One more for the win.

That's 3 oks, good enough for me, your win Fizzy   :thumbup

I actually agree that it got someone out on their bike, but wanted to make sure we were going to play by the rules, and introduce a new one: if any disputes arise, 3 oks from others and the challenge response wins. I'll put this on the rules post at start of thread.

Next challenge:

YOUR BIKE AND SOME DAFFODILS GROWING BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

Bit of a sad pathetic display and the electric box just adds to the beauty of the scene, im sure its not the tranquil beauty the challenger had in mind.

But it does fit the bref so it has to be a pass from me
