[Haitch]

Not taken for the competition, just to keep Angelfishsolo's photo company.

A Bianchi abandoned next to the waste containers in northern Spain last summer:

Yep I noticed the others after I posted but my pic is still lonely

Old pics don't count AFS

Old pics don't count AFS

Technically all pictures are old once they are taken

Hmmm, taken since the challenge was set then

True, but some photos, like, well, erm, members of a certain cycle forum, are younger than others

On today's bike ride up the canal, we came across a guy on a badly maintained BSO whose chain had broken. G got his tools out and between us, we sorted it out but given the state it was in, I took a sneaky photo as it definitely fitted into the "decay" category!

Does broken down on a bike count, this was a mate after the Purin Hill TT practice last Sunday.

Right.

Sorry folks, I suffered a slight memory slip with regard to judging...

It's tough, but I've plumped for Angelfishsolo's effort. I like the way the bike seems to either be subsiding into, or growing out of, the ground.

Special mention to Smokeysmoo for a bike that looks like lichen.

Over to AFS for a subject!

Good thing you finally remembered

AFS. Bring it on!

Thank you very much peeps

Ok. Bad weather is upon us. the nights are drawing in so how about the most inappropriate clothing to be seen on a bike with at this time of year?

Hmmm .... shame this wasn't earlier, I could have got a great shot of the yoof with his arse cheeks hanging out of his too-big shorts

Never mind. I am sure there will be more opportunities
