It was between twisting edge and turbo for me but I had to go with turbo cause that just looks like a great place to ride.
 
Well even though Nicky Hayden was in the background I had to go for scorpa.
 
I had to go with TE; very nice shot!

I knew I could count on you :biggrin:
 
I went with T_E on this one. That was just a great photo all around, and kept well within the theme. A close second was Integral's photo.

(Note that siddharth's photo seems to be loading very slowly, so give it a chance to appear and "de-pixelate" to consider it in this contest if it initially appears as a blur.)
 
Great pictures, in the end I went with twisting_edge
 
Twisting_edge gets my vote.
 
Just a reminder that you have one day left to vote in the first round of this contest!
