ME haaaahaha



The subject.

Lifestyle Portrait. Take a photo of another rider in a non riding situation that tells a little about the sport.

The prizes:

3 way adjustable bogen tripod OR
A grabbag of misc junk I'm trying to get rid of.

The rules.

Point and shoot and slr are in the same class.

It must be a new photo. Nothing earlier than today.

If anyone complains they are automatically barred from the contest and also from the internette

You gotta work for this one - If I get nothing that I like, I'm giving the tripod to my good buddy SR.

If I decide that none are worth the top prize, the top photo gets the grabbag.

I encourage bribes. I can rig this contest very easily for copious amounts of cash, wired to my bank account in zurich.

When you post your photo, you MUST say something in reference to or about the icepeeps or your photo does not count. If you have never heard of the icepeeps, you are disqualified.

There are such things as dumb questions, ask one and you are booted from the contest.

If you give me good rep points, it will help your standing.

I'll add more as they come to me.


Don't ask whats in the grabbag.



I think that about covers it. Remember, get creative!

These icepeeps spoke to me when i was playing supermariosmashbros, and said love your dog and take him out for a ride.
So we decided to take this pic to represent how important dogs are to the sport.

So, will it impress you more if I fake some ethics and say that your particular position will not affect my judging, or do you just want to be declared winner now?:D

This doesn't make any sense at all, so in reality I suppose that you pass the icepeeps test. What do you think Steve?

Congrats, you are at least halfway there...

ICEPEEPS!!!!

Back in the day, my wife came across a piece of paper with my login info for Ridemonkey, Icepeeps, and probably Hcor. She immediately assumed these were porn sites and started digging through my browser history. Doh! :banghead:

Good times. Good times.

so I took it upon myself to take a couple of images following this theme...in addition I decided I would take them from my driveway, since I razzed Derek about that at the beginning of the contest. Needless to say, it can be a tough challenge to get decent images without leaving the comforts and amenities of your own personal pavement paradise. In any event here's a couple of shots....


Pre-ride self portrait. All my mountain biking these days consists of shuttling...yes I am sucking the soul out of all that is pure in mountain biking and I'm semi-proud of that accomplishment


Raising the next generation of icepeeps...bike cleaning is essential


and a little known icepeeps fact for the trivia buffs in the crowd. If you google "icepeeps" under image search, the first two images are of Johnny and Damon....Do you think it's any coincidence that during the height of the icepeep revolution Johnny Damon was also reaping the benefits of his most successful years as a baseball player? I think not.

Oh, snap...nearly every photo I took this past month is riding related. This is my best offering. It easily pales in comparison to most of the ones ahead of mine. It's my offering all the same - deal with it.

A few of us were on a trail that shall remain nameless. If I were to reveal the name, I would have to kill you. I prefer non-violent approaches. Anyway, we were admiring a yet-to-be-completed...hmmmm, not quite a jump, gap or drop...more like a launch-pad. I particularly like the lush background in this pic.
