    Exclamation MAY BOTM

    Happy May everybody!.

    seeing we still need a January bike please specify which month you're interested in so we can have two polls next week.


    hope that we get many awesome pics of your bikes and our beautiful state again this month!.




    the posting Guidelines:

    1. please submit only ONE picture of your current bike preferably with a season appropriate background.
    2. the picture should have a scenic Colorado backdrop seeing the theme of this calendar is CSC bikes and Colorado. In other words don't submit your favorite pic of your bike in the garage or in front of your house. Along with your pic tell us a little about you and your bike to include yr/make, model mods if any, your name, age , occupation and most importantly where the pic was taken.
    3. It must be your current bike and you must be a active member of the CSC.
    4. There is no more limit as to how many peeps can submit pics per month for we've decided to select the 10 awesomest pics every month for the viewing public to vote on. Rest assured that there will be no favoratism of any kind going into this selection process. We're simply going to select the most calendar worthy submissions based on the posting criteria and our love for the sport and Colorado.
    5. you may submit your pic in subsequent months if your bike is not chosen. If you win the bike of the month poll you may submit up to 5 more detail pics of your machine. These may be action pics, detail up close and personal pics or pics with you and or a model on your bike. We may put these in thumbnail format on the bottom of the winning months pic once the calendar gets put together.


    the voting Guidelines:

    1. YOU MAY ONLY VOTE ONCE
    we'll keep the thread open for the first 7 days of the month for pic submissions. A poll will be inserted in either the thread or a seperate new voting thread.
    Remember~~ you can only vote once.
    2. voting will start no earlier than the 7th day of each month and will run until the 10th day at which time a winner will be announced.
    Please vote carefully and without bias to people and or their particular flavor of bike.
    I hope you all are looking forward to this as much as I am for the finished product ought to be something we CSCers can all be proud of and needless to say the month to month braging rights if you're the lucky one.

    Have fun with this and best of luck to all that participate.

    NOW BRING THE PICTURES!!!!
    be nice till it's time to no longer be nice

    Ok, let's see if this one can get the Beast over the hump:



    1985 Honda VF1000R

    This one is probably better for January than May given the snow.

    Re: MAY BOTM

    I'm Garrett, a soon to be graduate of CU-Boulder in Astrophysics (4 days and counting). I'm 23 and hoping to find a job/career soon.

    My bike is a 1994 Yamaha XJ600s (Seca2) that has decided it likes to ride nekkid instead of with clothes (ie a fairing). Since the pic was taken, the windscreen was removed, bulky turn signals replaced with LED's, and the entire front end was swapped for a 1998 FZR600 front end, with 2003 R1 brakes/MC.

    The pic was taken at the overpass on Hwy-36 with Boulder in the background. Pic was taken last year on the evening of May 31st.

    Thanks! Took a little more work to install than I thought it would. Actually took more time getting the head light apart to put them in. LOL!

    Unfortunately our adventures took us out of colorado. My buddy is the only one with the digital camera. This is on our way to the Black Hills to have a little fun. ZX9. Great tourer. Also, I do not know how to make the images smaller if someone could help me figure that out.

    Thanks. Yeah, she's a pristine version of a 1000R, completely stock. Ought to be worth a decent amount when I retire in 25 years or so.
