Cycling Photo Challenge - Entries and Chat

[Auntie Helen]

Now obviously I can't submit pictures to judge as I'm the judge of this challenge, but I thought I'd post a couple so you can try to guess where on the bike/what they are. Here goes:

I'm not sure about the first one but the second one is a wine gum you dropped onto the frame a couple of weeks ago

 

[Auntie Helen]

Actually I do have a red version of the green thing which I was using up till recently till I swapped to the green wine gum!

 

[Aperitif]

The first one is your exhaust pipe the other is a greenfinch that you ran over (you ran over the robin last week!)

 

[Auntie Helen]

Now come on, Aperitif, you saw the trike 3 days ago, should be easy for you!!!

Hoorah! Hoorah! At last I have my bike, my camera, a computer and this thread all in the same place! I never remember to take pics otherwise.

My entries:

A bit blurry, alas.

This is better:

 

[Auntie Helen]

Uncle James thinks the top one is the end of a dynamo and the bottom a Sturmey Archer brake hub thingie.

 

[snakehips]

Agreed , the bit of a 'bottle' dynamo that contacts the tyre, and a hub brake lever

 

[Arch]

Yup, that's what they are....

Mudguard fixing?

 

[fossyant]

Mudguard fixing?

Of course - easy !!

I need to get camera out !!!!

 

[summerdays]

Mudguard fixing?

Yes - I liked the pattern - I was taking a photo of something else but saw that element... I hoped rotating the photo might put you off slightly...

 

[Auntie Helen]

Well, the judge has judged!

I liked these pics very much. However most of them seemed quite monochrome and so the standout one to me was the very colourful offering by Aperitif:

So Aperitif wins, and gets to set the next challenge!

By the way, my pics were a weird tube thingie I have where my back suspension folds up a bit, and the green thing is the suspension elastomer in situ.

Congrats Aperitif, a well deserved victory. What's next then?
