Great fun to look at. I espessially like the one with the buell at night and the "Let's Play" moto of rebel sport. Very Clever. Very Nice. Thanks Big Dave.

Let me go back and take another look.....and how big are your thighs, if there as big as mine i'll take a pass on her phone number coz her boyfreind would have the biggest arms in the world:laugh:



Edit: Closer look reveals she does'nt have enough meat on her bone for my tastes, pretty though, nice boots too.

More please !

For a moment, a weak moment, I found myself wanting a FatBoy. Even in that yuck puke colour it looked nice?
Good to see lots of Triumphs in their BD. Photogenic they are.
And that long dust trail racing up the hillside was hilarious.

If those are pictures you took, is it possible to request higher resolution versions of some of them?

Ideally 1600x1200, as some would make excellent wallpapers!

1024 x 768 used to be wallpaperish hey.
Maybe - still got a few to run out yet.

Used to be, I'm afraid. However computer screens seem to be super-sizing lately. It isn't stopping me from using them as wallpapers even as we speak, but a sharper image would be icing on the cake.

If there is a way to get hold of higher-res versions of 06/12/13/17/18/19/30 I would send happy thoughts your way in return. ;)

There's one thing those photos keep saying to me - 'Gotta get a job as a photographer at a bike mag.'

Don't imagine it'd pay what I earn in IT but the lifestyle would be worth it.

Need to buy a house so I can setup my darkroom again... Or bite the bullet and buy an EOS 400D. Can see that going down well with the mrs :nono:

I lease them. 2 years of motorcycle abuse - send it back and get new unit.

BTW - 'Art Director' - same gig - bigger wank.

Damn that's a good idea. Lenses and all or just the body? What sort of $$ does it work out as if you don't mind me asking.

Like that title... Wanky enough but not so wanky as to demand you drive an Audi.

Brilliant, Dave, thanks so much for putting these up.
I love the shots of the country I miss more as time goes by, and how well motorcycles fit.

Cheers

Awesome shots, Dave.

That CB1100R shot just reminds me how beautiful they are.

Just one thing, no Guzzi shots in there.

Ah well, perhaps in 12 months time there will be a Griso 1200 8V pic in there for the best of '08 ;)

You must be referring to the Stelvio.
Nice machine indeed.

Hornet is one of the best bang for buck bikes on the market. But I like the photo's toothpaste backgrounds.

It’s a sad thing to say about a bike – it’s ok because it’s value for money. It detracts from the quality of your photo’s though don’t ya think.

Not a chance, your bike was one of the better looking bikes on our xmas eve eve ride. Just a pity you were not there to ride it.

Couldn't have gone to a nicer fellah to ride it for me though.

Yeah - cool - funnily enough - my first test for the Hornet in 2005 was along the lines of saying that it was a shame to refer to it as value for money because it purported eggzactly what you say.

The only bummer was the HTFU heated grips.
