Big Adv bike photos needed for article

[buggsubique]

Lads,

I'm putting an article in for Kiwi Rider magazine and I need to get some photo contributions.

The article will likely be focussed on that Waiouru adv ride (http://http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php/130336-Waiouru-Army-Adventure-Ride/page12?highlight=waiouru) we did this time last year as the base story for taking big bikes outside their (and our) comfort zones. Ie I will write that ride up as an article with tangents along the lines of "that time when X took his [big bike] through blah blah".

I guess the article is about us average blokes with average bikes riding them in far from average places.

Keen to get photos showing big bikes stuck, climbing or traversing some mean bits, falling off trying, towing, repairing, sinking, swimming etc etc. I will request the mag gives credit to the right people for the photos.

Please email your offerings to [my handle]@gmail.com

Many thanks! Buggs

Here's a couple:

The bike probably shouldn't have been fully loaded at the time... or by myself :pinch:

No don't think so, everyone was too busy taking cover and I was too busy thinking about other options :)

Aye lad, she were quite the guzzi in her youth.
Perky cylinders with no need of those plastic bras and a single perfect plug cap in the middle. None of this twin plug nonsense. Unnatural if you ask me...
