Blue sky this week. Let's hope we get the weather to make it possible.

The rules;
1. Take a photo of your bike with something that matches the theme in the background.
2. Interpret the theme any way you like.
3. [b]Pictures should be taken between the dates in the topic title.[/b]
4. If you post a picture you can either suggest a theme for next weeks challenge or vote for someone else's suggestion. First suggestion to get two supporting votes becomes next weeks theme, probably.

We'll have to have a referendum on it first though 😉

OK then, due to popular demand, it's blue skies and/or ice cream vans.
It's too late to edit the topic title now though.

I don't think the mods read this thread.
Try swearing so it gets reported to them.

This morning -

The reason for the ride was to collect the car from a garage near Richmond - Mrs Jay managed to put £40 worth of petrol in the diesel car 😥

I'm just heading out, so my suggestion will almost certainly depend on what's on the camera card when I get back in. I'm off into the lanes, so some kinda bestiary / agricultural bias might creep in (or it'll be something to do with beards) 😉

Today's ride was pretty much defined by Parish Church(es) and cows, so I'll go with those two as suggestions.

How about the Church/Graveyard theme. But next to a War Grave Headstone the white ones with a regimental badge ?

Follies are a bit thin on the ground and often have limited access. Maybe they could be included with something else. No reason why we can't have two or more themes on the go in one challenge.
I quite like the idea of Cheeky Urban Trails.
