One of my favorite things about the Forums here on our site, is reading the great ride reports with photos from across the US and even some from other countries. I have done a couple myself, and I know it takes time and effort to take the photos, edit them, upload them, and create the narrative.

Long time RoadBikeReview member Scot_Gore has come up with a great way to give recognition to those individuals among us, who have made the effort and shared their riding experience with their online brethren here.

Post #1 has the details, as layed out by Scot_Gore (almost spit up my coffee when I saw the "award" image...)

In short, we have 20 polls with 7-8 Photo Reports in them. Vote for your favorite one in each of the twenty.

After that, we will have a run-off of the top results, and once all is said and done, we'll have a winner. There is a RoadBikeReview Jersey and Bib shorts to the winner. MB1 is working on other prizes as well.

Please take the time to review these great write ups and let us know which is your favorite! We'll leave this up for at least a week as there are a LOT of reports to go through.

The photos range from scenery to people riding to bikes to almost abstract. There are no categories, just vote for whatever you enjoy most!

Thanks for your participation, and thanks to Scot Gore and MB1.

Nice work, gregg. There's some really amazing stuff in there. I'm humbled that my meager contribution is nominated alongside those of the masters like Philippe, MB1, Pierre, Arby, and Kai Ming.

Oh, there must be some kind of mistake ----

The only "mistake" is that the photo report thread for the "Tour de la Casa de Js" wasn't included.

Now there's quite an image. I'm having flashbacks to the Big Lebowski. "Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon . . . with nail polish."

My fave was the thread where everyone was taking pics of their scale to see who was gonna gain the most weight over Xmas. Lotsa mens toe pics there. Where's that thread, gregg?

 

[gregg]

Credit goes to Scot_Gore, really.

He's the one who pulled all the threads together, randomized them, and then created all 20 polls.

Thanks, Scot!
