The 'That Sign' collection expanded with mtble bagging the 10th photo in the collection.
You can see them all here If I missed one of yours, simply add THATSIGN in the keyword field when you edit the title or description. -------------------- |

I'd add mine but I think it might spoil the look of the collection? It features someone riding their bike rather than one leaning against the sign (and it's in proper conditions)!

That's a really great photo - but a bike isn't leant up against the sign so it doesn't count! My favourite photo taken from Whinstone Lee Tor (out of the ones I've taken myself) is this one but it hasn't got that sign in at all so I can't include it
Wait until it's snowing again and try again - and let us all know when you go because I really fancy getting up there when it's like that

I think we need to spice up the photos up there - anyone fancy hiring a couple of page 3 stunnas or a porno 'actress' for a little expedition

Rest of this love letter in a PM to Davey Poos.

This might be a daft question but...
What's so special about THAT SIGN? Why shouldn't I be taking it for granted? Sorry, but it's been bothering me for a while. |

Blasphemy - I propose we strike some-bod from the forum and confine him to hell (STW) for all eternity. On the other hand, nothing is very special about that sign except that Dave posted the 1st bike on sign photo then one day I came across the sign and thought 'I know that post, I'll copy it' and it all snowballed from there...... |

Oh no! here we go again! :cry: Yep, it's true, there is nothing much special about that post to those who haven't followed the evolution of the Forum. It has a very nice view indeed but I've seen better. It's not even a 'Right of Passage'. But it is a bit of fun and many bikers will get an opportunity to bag a picture there on one of our regular rides. So; long may it continue to flummox the uninitiated with it's apparent pointlessness. :wink: |

Maybe each forum member should have their signature sign/post/pile o' rock that they photograph their bike next to, and we could each try and bag them all!

My personal favourite is this one:
& 
only 5 more of my bikes to go and I'll have the set. Not that I have the Marin anymore. |

Tom, I would expect your sign to get the least takers. Having said that, now I have met a few of the folk on the site most of them will see this as a challenge
