Featured bike

[the captain]

Righty-o

we're currently developing a new feature for the site

Feature Bike!
(this is a working title at the moment!!)

The jist of it is, we want to put a write up and some pictures of various members bikes, maybe one a month just as a point of interest and to get things a bit more bike orientated.

So im asking you lot for submitions

An image of your bike will be on the home page of the site so everyone will see it, and they can then link to the full write up from there!!

All im looking for is a write of of the bike, what it is, when you got it, what you use it for, any mods etc, with some cool pictures, we'll only need a few, and obvioulsy a bit of info about you good selves!!!!

Any of you that has a project bike or you've turned a road bike into a track weapon, a restoration or just normal road bike, anything like that would be awesome!
before and after photos...you get the idea!

It can be any bike, just make the write up fun and/or interesting

No essays, max 500 words (not including any specs you may want to add!)

So get busy....i dont care how many submitions i get, they will all eventually get featured.

If you send the write up and any photos you want to use to this email, i'll do the layout.

thecaptain@essexbikers.co.uk (thecaptain@essexbikers.co.uk)

photos as jpeg and write up in word, plain text, pdf or iword (for you mac users out there)

****BUMP****

I've only had 2 submitions so far (so thankyou to those!!)

All you lot wanting this site to be more bike orientated, id have thought you be jumping at the chance to have your bike on here, in its own little gallery on the home page
It'll be the first thing people see when they sign in...especially newbies!!

It doesnt have to be a super fancy project, it can be as standard as they come, but if you love your pride and joy, why not show it off!!!

I know there are some projects on the go so im hoping you guys are going to send me your photos and a write up when its all done!

so come on guys!! you want to do your bit......lets go!

I would Shane but bike is not quite worthy of a front page yet...:grin2

[Liokaiser]

Im thinking of putting my gixxer up there...there isnt a shortage of photos on the site already.

[v8-powered]

Could put forward my ZZR-1100 as an illustration on how not to look after your bike......

Mismatched remould tyres - Check
Chain oiler leaking onto rear tyre - Check
Leaking fork seals - Check

:grin2

I was going to do mine and say how good it was as a first bike. Might have to wait till i get it back now, though ill be able to write about my first trackday soon as well.

Can i just say i do a little bit of photography and have a portfolio at www.onemodelplace.com/sifocusuk (http://www.onemodelplace.com/sifocusuk). Its mainly girls but I started out years ago at car shows and the like so if anyone (or the site) is in need of a photographer, i'm more than happy to help out when and where i can.
