The Photo Comp - back by popular demand*.

There's a few simple rules, here goes.

Submit a photo to this thread that in someway depicts bikepacking (or at least cycling) that you have taken this year. Only one pic per entrant and please give it a title.

Don't submit attachments as the scrolling required to view it won't do your masterpiece justice.

Try and keep images to 1000px wide or less.

Closing date for submissions is Christmas day.

Voting will open on Boxing day and close on Jan 1st.

The 'winner' will recieve some form of prize.

VOTING IS NOW OPEN - FILL YER BOOTS.

*Well, Simon asked.

Doubt it. If you can take a picture its irrelevant if you're a pro or not. By the way not sure either of your photos depict bikepacking so not sure how well you'll do :lol:

Not sure we have anyone who is a full time photographer as their only source of income on here do we?

Also: Yey photo comp!

I find myself in the weird position of having to choose from 4 photos I really like. Not overly weird you might think until I explain that they've randomly ALL got Chew in them!

Here's my entry.....

Title: 'TNR hills'

Just in case anyone's wondering what the other 3 were (not entries, just for your viewing pleasure).....

Despite the sinister undertones the Chew inclusion factor was entirely accidental and in no way creepy, honest!

Cyril summing up how many of us felt on the top of that first big climb! Lost most of my TNR camera pics in a dropped phone incident but uploaded a few before that.
