Well, long weekend and we are mostly stuck at home. So here’s an idea. Post your all time favorite motorcycle related photo. Could be of you. Your family. Wife. Old girlfriend. Both. A racing related photo. A rebuilding or custom photo.

Just has to be somehow motorcycle related.

Ok, but where is yours?

....and no pictures of relays, spark plugs or clutch jobs either Prescott!

This is a real BFTP (Blast-From-The-Past), I found in the files recently.

Photo taken about 1990 in my driveway, in Chandler, AZ. Me and my "first" Harley, a 1988 FLH-S (Electra Glide Sport).

(Was that really 30 years ago?!?

YIKES!!!

Well, I probably have too many to call one my Favorite so I'll post a few...

V11 in SoCal, one of my Favorite roads in San Diego County.

Back when ('70s) the only thing hard about my luggage was the backpack's frame and the sissy bar mounting......(Yamaha 650)

Between a computer blowout and a burned up (literally) cellphone, I've lost most of what I had. This is the best of what's left, my grandson with his brand new bike, age 11.

Great topic and thread for a locked-down Holiday Weekend!

Probably very difficult to just pick ONE but this one always makes me smile. A guy married to a work-mate of my son inherited this R69S and was about to take it to Atlanta to get it running. He learned that I worked on BMW's so he entrusted it to me rather than drag it all the way South.

This is the first time he ever rode it. Priceless look on his face, one of my favorites!

Could have chosen from dozens.
But favourite bike, favourite place, favourite time...

This is one of my favourites: Great bike, great road, big country, the right amount of traffic and you can't even see the blackflies.

I love the expression on my wife’s face in this pic. She is, in my opinion, adorable!

I have several of course.. but this one stands out in memory. 6 weeks to the day after a successful 6 hour cancer operation.

My all time favorite is of my dear departed and I on my buddy's then quite new 1976 Goldwing. We jumped on for a bit of a gag shot. I always wished I had thrown a T shirt on for the picture.

Another classic...me and my ol' '78 BMW R100RS Motorsport Edition, aka "The White Lion" out at Tortilla Flat, AZ back in the day. (Photo by Nolan Woodbury)

I’ll play, me and my son on his last ride on his 750 Shadow before we went home and found him a HD soft tail deluxe which is about the only full size bike he can flat foot.
