There were only two suggestions in last weeks challenge, so it’s Tractors this week, I’ll save flowers for the summer.
You can stretch the definition to include any sort of related agricultural equipment if it makes a good picture.

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. Pictures should be taken between the dates in the topic title.
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.

Suggestion – Birds

On my way home today I happened across the ultimate in niche tractors.
Ford County with grab and pole trailer caught while the crew were having their lunch break.

Seems to be just blue Fords so far then…

Spotted on tonights ride – not exactly a tractor but it was on a farm 🙂

Mathews tractor looks like its hiding

It was shy. I had to stand still for about 10 minutes as it rolled forwards slowly to let me see it. Every time a car came past it would go back behind the shed.

Is this just a ploy to get pictures of Orange 5’s next to tractors to see which looks most agricultural?

From todays fatbimble.

It’s quite a stretch for me, as it’s not even agricultural machinery.
All ‘my’ local tractors are out working the fields …

It’s that time of year, so “Flowering Trees” for next week?

Never thought I would find a tractor in Bristol City Centre

Graeme, top marks for finding a Field Marshall.

Old Major and a newer John Deere this morning.

So, it’s either birds or flowering trees for next week. Somebody else decide.

Wensleydale ride today and quite a few tractors were spotted – here is a selection
Marsett

Thornton Rust

Cam High Road

Nobody wants to pick then ?
OK, I’ll go for birds.

New thread here.

If you mean TAS 894, that’s not a Field Marshall – it’s a Fordson model N.

Oh yes, so it is. 😳
I couldn’t see the flywheel from that angle. I should have spotted that the exhaust is too thin.

tractor geeks LOL
