@coffeejo can we have an example of what you are looking for as Judge.

Im not sure we are impressing you suitably

Tomorrow. I'll go through them all tomorrow, see who is in contention.

I may have a sleepless night

Has the Prof banished you to the sofa again?

 

[Hill Wimp]

I wont thats for sure. After no sleep last night ( i hate camping ) and climbing Belgian hills today im cream crackered.

Here we go, a composition I call Bike, Foot, Lemon Drizzle Cake.

My first entry ever, it's taken me this long to work out the rules. I hope I've got it right.

 

[Hill Wimp]

Can't you find one of those hiker's garden sheds? Trish and I used them when we got fed up with canvas when doing the North Sea route.

Trekkerhut yep we are in those now and we have used a few along the route. For a few extra euros you get a comfy bed, electricity and heating to dry your wet gear. The UK should think about them.

We're using those too. Camping is fine apart from being on a 'quiet after 10' site that has music blaring out until 2 in the morning when you're getting up at 7am
passersby wd have heard profuse swearing coming from my tent

Taken tonight with my go pro in the pitch dark at Hanchurch woods


A banana gone in 3 bites

That's about as close as I get to refreshments unless I'm on a pub stop!

Now if only there was someone watching in the woods, filming the nutter doing this!

it did cross my mind


but it helps when you're the only nutter out at night

I think these meet the 'requirements'.... whatever they were.

The what the f*** is she up to look

The I can't get out of the way pose and the trike being used as a wheelchair look....

And my OH's attempt at a foot in the picture.

Does he know where his or your foot is on the body? It's almost as good as Rocky's bird identification..... Don't let him operate on you!

Edit: for calcification err clarification I meant don't let Mr SNSSO operate on you, but thinking about it ...l don't let Rocky either.....

Opps just spotted the helpful ipad typo correction!!!

I like these: the overall look of some, whilst others could do with a bit of polishing/cropping but I love the idea behind them. There's one clear winner in my mind but we've still got a week (A WEEK!!!!!!) to go.

I had a banana on my early ride, the first picture wasn't one for sharing, he he.

specially for @potsy

I went out on one of my normal Sunday rides and got caught up in the bath sportive. Got told off by a marshal for not wearing a helmet and told him I wasn't in the sportive so please be quiet using my most polite language. Decided to cut my ride short for coffee. This is arty as my coffee shots get.

Wife keeps asking what I'm doing.

View attachment 95358

refreshments?

View attachment 95678

essential liquid before a ride!

or did you mean something like this?

View attachment 95679

all homemade including the bread (sourdough) and the pate! oh and the sourdough chocolate chip scone which is more like a sweet bread but not that type!

I was going to do a two part photo yesterday, as I met friends for early morning refreshments .... But I ate it all and didn't remember till we were leaving 2 hours later so I give you the first photo (without my coffee and croissant but there were lurking very near by) View attachment 95727 View attachment 95730
