OK, for those inclined to give it a go, the challenge for June is to ....

write "BM JUNE/17" on a sheet of paper large enough to show on a photo of your bike

take a photograph of your bike (with the control card visible) in front of places as noted below

by NOON on the 3rd of July upload your entries to the event photo page and label with the locations

That's it. I might ask a few questions about the places you've been but I'll choose and announce a winner by noon on the 6th.

For June I require no more than:

2 bridges

3 border signs (town,county,country,national park,etc)

4 boxes (AA/RAC boxes, telephone boxes, pillar boxes -especially Gold ones)

ONLY stop where it's safe and legal to do so, and enjoy the rides.

I thought I could see who had uploaded photos to an event - but I can't so please add your forum name to your card if you're taking part in June.
Ta.

...would you accept the forum username as text imprinted on the image itself - kinda powerpoint / photoshop stylee?
That might help keep the control card smaller, especially with wider images.
My wee friend is worried he'll be forced out of shot.....

Thanks for the link Nick and yes, photo-shopping would be fine, "no-one puts Baby in the corner".

Hope you manage to upload your photos Jinx

Targeted a unique old style Oxfordshire roadsign on my travels today...only to find someone had nicked the top half of it for a souvenir.
On Google street one minute...on someone's mantlepiece the next.

Yes - the more interesting it is the more it'll add to points, as it looks like there's some competition this month.

The June challenge honours go to Jinx - well done.
I like the double-gold boxes and also the letter box at Box (hee-hee)

CMD, you need to get your bits of bike out of boxes, put together, and on the road.
