Largest group photo
Funniest/Most Unusual photo
Prizes = Set of Bridgestone tyres for every winner and a 6 month membership to BM for the 2 runners up in each category.
PS: I'm looking for one or two example photos to use for the new section im making. Can anyone who has one please email it through to me? PM me for email address.
So let me get this right, if you can afford to swan around the country and other countries taking photos of yourself, you will win a prize and those of us that can't afford it can buy our own tyres.
jeees page 3 of the forums this got pushed to, you lot need to stop chatting so much.
Scary... yep! U can team up like TM says if you want.
Might cost u a lot doing it, but ull get tyres out of it (To cover the mile-crunching).
It's a good way of getting the site more active and giving everyone something to do.
You will be allowed to use pub names too though, not just town names. Or other place names, as long as there's a sign.
R_ND - every photo is CAREFULLY checked by myself and doctored photos = ban from competition. Inappropriate = ban from the site (Same as with profiles and event photos).
All the rules are covered on the competition page (Only myself and TC can access right now).
Anyhow - who will be taking part in this? TM - i how u will b!
2 weeks time (approx 15th april) it starts, and you upload them to the website (I'm making a new section).
TC has already started taking photos or local places.
The reason for this topic is to allow the forum users to get a head-start in the competition. There's several pairs of tyres available, one set (plus a years free membership to this site) available for the first to get A-Z (Exc. X).
Are foreign place names acceptable?
Taking the Bandit to France on the 12th April for a week, and should be able to get a couple of unusual ones there...
well wkd's comin up so i will get started!!checkin map's an pub's already! got a feelin TC's gonna get this he's the type determined and greedy for fame!
Let me get this right. You fire the starting pistol on (say) April 15. Will pictures taken before then be valid, or do they have to be taken on of after that date?
can be taken whenever you like. The reason for this topic is to give a head-start to those members who are active and involved in the forums already.
If you don't take part in the forums, you miss out on getting a head-start.
Same goes for the newsletter - i put info in there, so if you dont read the newsletter then u again miss out on a head start in the competition.
Is it worth trying on a clapped out old pushbike with a flat rear tyre ? Not sure how far I could cycle though... and would the tyres I win be compatible ? Certainly needs new ones
And we still need some example photos - so if you take any before the launch, please PM me and I'll give you access to the system (you can help me and TC test it).
