Sorry Steve, I 've got to dispute this one. All the challenges I have set are things that I could do myself. This is clearly NOT on the beach. So, as much as I hate to quote the rule book to anyone. You either need 3 votes or if no one else can do it in three days....I'll show you how it's done

With out breaking the law.

I'm with dazza on this one sorry, as it was 'on' the beach.

Oh come on fellas that's just not cricket! Around here you ain't allowed vehicles on the beach apart from council or emergency services. My bike ain't either of those

But that's what makes this challenging and it will last longer giving other members a chance to compete.

In the same respect that some people don't live near windmills, national speed limit signs or red phone boxes...

You should have stood your bike on some beech planks or a female mexican dog and might have got points for being a smart arse.

Next challenge: "I don't know at this point"

stevierst · « **Reply #55 on:** 10 January 2013, 03:37:33 pm »

Right, its only a game, lets treat It that way.

Next challenge.... Your bike on a beach.

That's about as 'on the beach' as I'm going to get without breaking the law.

oh just noticed!!

when you said without breaking the law .... er ..... whats the rules on parking on cross hatching????

stevierst · « **Reply #57 on:** 10 January 2013, 03:57:32 pm »

Nice try Robbie

its not on a road, therefore not covered under the RTA.

Let's have a vote on a new rule.....Anyone who has a disputed challenge...Gets an automatic 3 challenge suspension.

Lol, I guess someone was a bit upset about drawing 1st and wants to win next time

Next challenge: your bike on a beach

Never mind the off road yellow line box .. the bike is for sure blocking the access for those emergence vehicles you mention .. and I'd bet good €s that it's against some law somewhere in the small print

(I'm still a bit upset about my French Bridge shot

)

Stay Safe Trev. Next Challenge .. Bike ON a Beach

stevierst · « **Reply #61 on:** 10 January 2013, 05:23:39 pm »

Purplebear, don't get at me about following the law, you can't even follow rule 5

Next challenge, your bike on a beach.

Yet again I quote "its only a game"

Next challenge, your bike on a beach. (one your legally allowed to go on thats not too far away from everyone that wants to play

)

stevierst · « **Reply #63 on:** 10 January 2013, 06:27:20 pm »

That's a +1 from me. The whole idea of this game is to get people off their whiny backsides and out there riding, just like I'm doing EVERY day getting pictures, even the dubious ones

Of which you have had several

I wanna challenge the challenge....... The challenge was `on a beach` and has been refused as its not actually ON the beach. I think it only fair that it is accepted, as the challenge `on a dry road` was accepted when quite clearly the bike was parked on the pavement NEXT to the dry road!!

caretaker · « **Reply #66 on:** 10 January 2013, 07:04:18 pm »

give me till the weekend and i'll give you a beach photo.

OK then, let's throw the rule book out the window or shall we all just play nicely and keep to the rules and the challenges

Doddsie · « **Reply #68 on:** 10 January 2013, 07:34:43 pm »

Point being, you have already broken the rules and let it go once. On a dry road was allowed when it was next to a dry road, on a beach was disallowed when it was next to a beach!!!!! And it was a tongue in cheek comment Dazza, calm down , it is only a game!!!!

stevierst · « **Reply #69 on:** 10 January 2013, 07:52:54 pm »

I'm not bothered if its accepted or not, were losing valuable riding time here!!! I could be getting more dodgy challenges, or not in some cases.

Next challenge... Your bike on a beach, not next to, above, below it, or even two of them or the wrong colour. A beach!

Now can we put the bloody handbags away please ladies, cos I'm gonna kick your asses at this anyway!

dazza · « **Reply #70 on:** 10 January 2013, 08:06:08 pm »

That's the spirit Steve

What rules have you been reading then Doddsie...Only I can't remember seeing that one

NEXT CHALLENGE...YOUR BIKE.ON A BEACH.

Doddsie · « **Reply #71 on:** 10 January 2013, 08:26:13 pm »

Was just trying to clear up why it can be next to a dry road but not next to a beach? And surely Dazza the `spirit` is in playing the game, not nit picking over the exact wording

? Anyway, back to the game....next challenge ON A BEACH!!!

dazza · « **Reply #72 on:** 10 January 2013, 09:02:09 pm »

Point taken mate but surely the wording is crucial to the actual challenge. Which is why the "IN a greenhouse" challenge was questioned by Stevierst.

NEXT CHALLENGE....YOUR BIKE ON A BEACH.

Doddsie · « **Reply #73 on:** 10 January 2013, 09:22:37 pm »

Totaly agree with you, I just cant work out why `a pic of your bike on a dry road` is allowed to have a pic of a bike NEXT to a dry road, but `a pic of your bike on a beach`isnt allowed a pic of a bike NEXT to a beach??? Either Steve gets both pics allowed or both pics banned surely?lol, Sorry Steve!!

Shall we just agree from now on that the pic must be EXACTLY AS ASKED FOR IN THE CHALLENGE?

Next challenge...... YOUR BIKE ON A BEACH!

dazza · « **Reply #74 on:** 10 January 2013, 09:44:39 pm »

Got to be honest, I was concentrating so hard on the damp patches on the road I didn't even realise he was on the pavement until you mentioned it

+ ONE for both banned

I agree, from now on for the sake of fairness, let's keep to the wording......Like everyone else is doing
