Thought maybe we could have a little fun here and have a nice collection of photos, maybe even candidates for a Calendar if we get enough submissions and focus less on the shortcomings of MG and see our babies out doing what they do best!

Kindly post up your best Adventure Moto Photo...the only unique criterion is that the photo must have been taken at least 250 miles from your home!

Add location, time of year and maybe a short snippet of the trip if you like or other tidbit of information about the photo or event that took you there.

If it's a place where the GPS coordinates are too precious to share, then perhaps a rough idea of where it's at would be good:

Multiple entries encouraged...the more the merrier!

Here's the 1st one that comes to mind. I have to give credit to rocker59 (he took the picture) this is above Cripple Creek, Colorado last summer.

This photo was taken in 2003 in SW Colorado. Had a great ride from Hays, KS to Moab, UT. It was a great trip as it was both our first bike ride in the Colorado Rockies and the weather was amazing. We hit one small area of showers in SW KS which just pleasantly cooled us off and never had to put on a jacket the whole trip including in the passes.

Valley of the Gods; near Medicine Hat, Utah. On my way to the Moki Dugway.

Sorry it's not a MG, but this is my favorite ADV picture.

Best,

This turned out to be more adventure than we bargained for.

I've put this up before so I have it handy. Prolly could find something as good or better if I were willing to take the time, but not this morning.

Not a Guzzi, but they don't make one to go here. A Quota could do some of this, but most of it not.

I think this has to be one of my favourites. A classic 'what the heck do I do now' moment.

Collage consisting of a few pics taken in 2009. Bike (not in pics) was my R100GS. Route was from Cody WY, thru some of Yellowstone Nat'l Park, thru Afton WY, to Bear Lake UT.

"That is not my coyote."

This bad boy wasn't as close as he appears to be, and I took his pic from a car window, not from a motorcycle saddle.

I think this thread is starting to tell us that Guzzi owners don't associate their bikes with 'adventure'.

Maybe Stelvio riders don't have cameras? (Except for Daniel K.)
