The 2016 FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge

[sinto607276]

NOBODY MOVE! I'll do this one tomorrow, if i find a skate park.... was going to today but the missing part from my speedo senser arrived so fitted that and had a beer. Then realised i needed to go out.... oops.

:rollin :rollin

I thought you'd find this easy youngsterbiker 
Being a young lad, don't you carry your skateboard on the bike with you just in case you need it? :lol

Wet and windy this morning!


This is the public skatepark on Ribbleton Park, Preston.


I did a rather impressive run starting with the coffin, into a nac nac then finishing with the crowd pleasing kiss of death, some kids walking to school gave a cheer.  Unfortunately the tripod fell over so you will just have to be happy with this non action picture...





It is a small skatepark, but a skatepark it is

[fazersharp]

We snoozed -----------we loosed
Next please

[NorthWestern]

ok, this should be a fun and interesting one:


A picture with your bike in a Then and Now comparison with a historical urban photograph.


Such as these - This is Prestons Miller Arcade in 1902





So, you would find a pic like that, then recreate it with your Fazer in the shot, so this would be something like:





This is Miller arcade today (well, recent - not sure of the exact data...), It is clearly the same place but a different era.  Your Fazer would be in that picture.


The pic needs to be recognizably in the same place (ie you can't take a picture of a field, then your bike outside your new build house).

So you didn't manage the Superman seat topbox grab?  :b 


Really like your idea for the next pic too.

I overheard an onlookers child ask "Is that Batman?" at least that's what I think I heard, presumably due to my black waterproof overgear...  I thought doing a Superman might confuse matters

[HarryHornby]

you misheard them...... FAT man.......

to continue with the historical theme

Next challenge your bike with building that has 17th century years sign

for example 1666 

[fazersharp]

I like the way your bike is in the same place as the horse and cart.

I think that was a brilliant and interesting challenge- it should have its own separate section for everyone to post theirs in

Nope against the rules as the pic has to be taken after the challenge was set ie today and if i did it your way the image data would say taken yesterday, because traveled forward to get the challenge then when back to yesterday where the camera was just befor I went out for a ride
My way I get the challenge today and go back to yesterday WITH the camera from today that still says today's date and take the picture so the picture date on the camera will still of been taken after the challenge was set.
Your way would just be cheating

I think you have got confused in the space/time continuum, or maybe I have. Now what day is it, and where did this extra day in this month come from. Smells like the daleks to me.
