Since the NH Calendar thread is pretty much dead, I would like to continue something different...posting your best bike photos, especially with scenery in the background. I'll start with this one:  |

If it wasn't for all the shine, I'd think that was mine.
Nice shot!

Two of my favorites...
Literhawk in one of the Savannah Squares and the now dead 750 in a rural scene.

Hopefully Burgi doesn't sue me for copyright violation but this is one of my favorite MC pics EVER. I actually use it as my desktop pic.

Scenery? I can do scenery.
I'll start with the mundane in a small corner of my backyard: Glen Canyon NRA

Sorry, this isn't a Nighthawk pic, but it is a pic of me...on a dirt bike. I consider it 'scenic'.  My brother took this pic of me practicing at a motocross track, 'back in the day'. Because he took it looking directly in the sun, it resulted in the silhouette type pic you see. I have a large poster size copy of it. |

WOW!  I absolutely refused to budge from that spot until I got my husband to come back and take that shot. No idea how it would look from the back but I knew it was awesome from where I was sitting.  |

Keep 'em coming, people. Doesn't have to be a NH. Yeah, that pic of Burgi on her Bonnie is breathtaking. It captures that 'moment' well. Looking at mesmerizing photos of natural scenery that escaped human molestation are like therapy for me.  |

 Hardly scenic, but it's the best pic I've taken of the bike. Not even all the way dry from a good wash. |

Looking at mesmerizing photos of natural scenery that escaped human molestation are like therapy for me. Come out to the unpopulated west sometime then get away from civilization. In quite a few areas if you try to molest the scenery, it won't put up with your insolence then will leave no indication whatsoever that you were ever there. It doesn't put up with pathetic civilized nonsense. It is serious raw uncontained nature at it's best. 1. This picture does absolutely nothing for what the place is truly like. This is serious stop-you-from-breathing grade scenery! It's isolated and steep with one bad condition road in and out with absolutely nothing else around. There are several signs near the entrance to the dirt road warning anything short of high clearance 4WD to not go here and even then to get out quickly if there's any weather nearby. (BTW, this was the only section of semi decent road surface probably due to the narrow twisty section ahead with significant dropoffs on both sides. The rest of the road was, shall we say, dirt bike stuff. My CB650 thinks it's a dirt bike and I ride it like one) 2. Anti-molester terrain. Do anything stupid on this road (and there are lots of opportunities for stupid) and you get to fall down there where no one will ever Ever NEVER EVER find you. |

I have posted both of these photos before. The first photos I took of my bike after getting her back on the road is one of my favorite. It is infront of the lake in Estes Park, CO. The second photo is in front of Carter Lake, CO at sunset. Currently, there is a fire that has charded the hills behind this lake.

Burgi's shot is awesome. I really like that picture. I've got some really nice shots of the RWB 700 before I sold it. Near Deal's Gap at the rally.  Not much scenery, but I think this killboy shot is nice.  The Talimena Scenic Highway  I'm short on scenic pictures for Ole' Yella, but I'm working on it. I like the angle of this lighthouse shot.  |
