Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Bike Picture Game

Saw this on www.team-integra.net, and thought this would be a fun addition to our forum

Name a place or thing to take a picture with your bike. First person to go out, take, and post the picture, picks the next challenge. The picture must be taken after the challenge is picked. (There are no prizes y'all so have fun and take legit pictures) Try not to make it impossible. No photoshops. If nobody else gets the picture within 1 week, the person that picked it can choose a new one.

New challenge must be picked when picture of the last one was posted. So when you're posting your pic, also include the next challenge after the pic. See Rule 8



Rules: (switched up a little since we have bikes =)

1) The picture must be taken AFTER the challenge is picked.

2) After 3 days, the person who made the challenge can post their own picture and pick another topic.

3) If a challenge is not met after 1 week a new topic is picked by the previous challenger winner.

4) If a pic is in dispute, it needs 3 yes votes to be accepted.

5) After any comment, please put the current challenge at the bottom so everyone can stay up to date.

6) Pictures must be taken AFTER the challenge. Rare exceptions such as pictures taken on the said day BEFORE the challenge may be accepted only by 3 acceptance votes.

7) The following types of challenges are NOT allowed:
-action shots (any pic that the bike is moving..see Rule 6)
-challenges involving other people
-duplicate challenges
-illegal challenges

8) If a picture has been posted but a new challenge has not been picked, the current challenge is still active until (a)new challenge has been picked or (b) another rider posts another picture satisfying the challenge and picks a new challenge.

In this new and improved rules we will have not one...not two...but THREE challenges in a tier system!!

Easy Challenge: something that anyone with a bike and a camera can do

Moderate Challenge: something that might take a good deal of looking around and traveling around town, or can only be doe on a special day etc.

Difficult Challenge: not just anyone can do this. It might be specific to a certain group, region, past time, ect.

Remember y'all, the intention of this game is to get out there and bike and have fun


With that said, I'll start with an easy one..Let us begin

Challenge: bike in your garage

I really really like this idea! As a previous WRX owner, the Subaru forum did this as well. See their thread HERE

One this they do that i think might be kinda neat here are THREE different challenges ranging in difficulty from easy, medium, to hard.

Examples of this could be

Easy: Bike in your garage
Medium: Bike in front of your LBS
Hard: Your bike with Santa on it

Now, these are just examples and the three levels is also just a suggestion. Sometimes having the three levels allow for people to get more creative with challenges.

But like i said, i dig the idea and think it could be fun. Just wanted to throw out a little more to it. Or, we could see how this goes then maybe add the different levels later.

this sounds like a great idea, but i think the thread needs to jump off a bit more, unless the other people on the forum want to do this too

Cool cool! Also, another reason for having different difficulty levels is that it helps keep everyone involved so that its more likely for everyone to be able to do one of the levels. Unlike the quotes below, the posters may not have a garage, but could more likely have a photo of their bike infront of a LBS.

haha...the "your bike with santa on it" was an extreme example. Didn't think it would actually be used. Oh well, lets see who can get Santa on their fg!

Why do i see some santa becoming a bicycle thief in the near future....

Also, since I'm home for the holiday's, can i just have my parents on the bike, or is that just not in the christmas spirit?
