YUP... two of my favorites I've taken are just roads (well ones a track)

maybe in every submittal thread we have the rules posted in big letters... after all it's not always the veterans that are submitting pics

You're right. It's always been motorcycle related, not strictly motorcycle. Someone won once with a baby in a helmet didn't they?

my idea is to have a once a year vote on a winner from each category... not monthly...

and I too thought it had to have a motorcycle in it.

Go back over the last year and show me it's not the same 3 or 4 or 5 people submitting. And then tell me there's someone on this forum that doesn't know the rules.

I don't buy it. It's the same folks every time. This board isn't that big.

I'm saying in the future... and there were a couple that I hadn't seen much of.. I'm not attacking your running of the contest at all... just trying to make it... Army proof

And fellas...one of each of your photos is a race track. Thats absolutely MC related. The road...related in a loose interpretation of the rules...but when has anything on this board every been followed to the letter?

When it could get kicked for not being applicable...?

And that's Four Mile Post, outside Huntsville, AL. Might as well be a track

I could have sworn that I read that a motorcycle had to be in the shot... if not my mistake...

but apparently I'm not the only one who thought that way too.
