You need to send it to your photo-host site (if you have registered with one eg photobucket.com)
then copy it into a PM to me direct (do not post it on this thread - we want to keep all photos a surprise until the calendar is done)

or

send me an e-mail with your photo attached (will send you a PM)

Just to keep you aware I'm not forgetting: I'm working hard on shot's location. ;)

Enjoy your holiday.
Forgot to mention, I am amazed what you have managed to do to your bike. It looks absolutely fantastic.
Thanks.
I'm (still...) looking to pull out the sporty side of my R1200R from it.
And it seems I'm on the right path. :roll:

Or whatever. I sent a PM last week asking for an email address to send things to, never got a reply. This week I put the pics up on Photobucket, sent a PM telling him where they are - no reply.

Your guess is a good as mine..

Just returned from 7 days holiday. Spent the last week at the coast with 2 other families. Took my new Avon RIB c/w 50hp Yamaha outboard. Its my first boat and wow that thing flies (hardly surprising with a 1000cc Yamaha engine). Nearly as much fun as the Beema.

OK , ready to get stuck into the project this week. Thanks to all who have sent me their photos. The collection is looking good , but a few contributors have still to send their submissions so please make this a priority over the next few days.

Presume some people are away on Rallies etc.

Ron

PS, definately not been Harley shopping. Its my 50th in 3 weeks, so not old enough yet!...

.. (but I'll happily accept one as a birthday present if anyone is feeling that generous)

Rain, rain go away....
Since agreeing to send pictures Boston has experienced one of the rainiest July's in history.
The riding stinks and the photo opportunities are grim.

I thought of sending some older photos, but I'm determined to get a shot or two in Marblehead, MA this Friday - they say it'll be sunny.
No worries if you can't wait for me Rocket, but I wanted to explain my delay.

On a side note I've finally deciphered weatherman jargon.
It goes something like this:

Rain = No Rain
No Rain = Rain
Maybe Rain = Maybe Rain

This from a month of diligently watching the local news. :roll:

OK, seems like it's not just the UK which has had a very wet July - one of the worst in fact (whats happening to our climate?)

Since this is affecting a number of you, I will extend the photo deadline to this coming Sunday (9th August).

Thankyou again to those who have already submitted photos but I still only have 60% so need to do some chasing this week.

If anyone submits a photo of their bike in the rain, I'll use this entry for the month of July!
