Ok I'm dithering between yellow and lines.... Both inspired by the TDF (translation for @potsy - some gloves blokes 
went to France to try and ride their bikes a bit faster than Potsy can
) so it's either or both with a bike related theme or bike in the picture! Closing date in about 2 and a bit weeks time ....

Ok after some more dithering (helped by a trip to the pub and a walk)....
First a special mention to @Salty seadog for being the new kid and NOT following the rules
(just like the kids in the back row
) but showing some interesting "alternative" composition
And to @GM who was the only one to use yellow liquid.... I was expecting more entries!
I liked @Katherine's flowers - a lovely display that seemed summery with yellow car and lines! (Someone taking the comp seriously
)
Which brings me to to runner up.....
I loved the shape of the fruit mimicking the wheel, and the distortion of perspective..... A very close silver medal!
Which leaves the Gold Medal going to ........
@Hill Wimp for this lovely photograph of her bike in the yellow corn!! Congrats!

OK are you ready ?
After much thought at 2am in between securing a shrew and a mouse from Henry I have your next challenge should you wish to take it.
Inspired by the great views that many CCers post of their travels and the fact I live on the beach and look out to the sea daily the challenge is.
"The view to the fore or aft." That's ahead or behind for the dim.
So go out there and give me all those lovely views to choose from. Usual rules apply.
1. Must be a bike/part bike in the shot.
2. Feet and Feathers welcome.
3. Closing date Sunday 25th September.
That's all folks

I'm well chuffed!
So, I guess I need a theme now.
I am thinking..."Highs and Lows" anything reflecting to your riding high points and of course its low points too. Having both topocs in one image scores extra points.
Closing date 15th October.
Good Luck

Right then.... the new challenge is
On November 10th 1942 Sir Winston Churchill made this speech
View: https://youtu.be/pdRH5wzCQQw
So the theme is 'beginnings and endings'
Do remember to include a portion of bike.
The closing date is 10th November at 18 minutes to eight in the evening.

Thank you folks..
I think the theme for the new competition is going to be..
Something tall. The photograph, as usual, needs to contain a bike (or some of it, anyway)
Feet and egrets are welcome.
Closing date shall be 21st November 2016

OK the new challenge subject is quite a wide ranging one.
As we leave one year and enter the next I think it's quite fitting for the title of
"The old and/or the new"
It can be anything from a new view you have found on your ride to a rusty old tool you have found lurking in the back of the shed.Also it can be one or the other or both, whatever takes your fancy.
Usual rules apply. There must be a bike or part of one in the shot and feet, egrets and alcoholic beverages are also welcome additions to the composition.
Closing date is 16th January.

I am honoured to win this prestigious competition!
Thanks for the running it and for the topic @Hill Wimp
I thought I'd be beaten by the tram thingy photograph.
Subject to the strict rules of 'must include a bike, or part thereof' being adhered to (obviously, feet and egrets are eligible but ignored in the judging) is something edible on a ride
The end date shall be, for no obvious reason, the 5th of February 2017.
