    Since we seemed to have had such a great time snagging all of the photos next to things that go "Military", I thought I would propose one.

    Here is my idea:

    An action photo of you riding your favorite XJ.

    This is an opportunity to get your friends and loved ones involved or to find that creative mount for your GoPro or for leaving your camera and tripod along side the road or even handing your camera to a total stranger!

    What ever it takes. Just do it safely please.

    I'll bite :) . This is a photo of me on my XJ550 Seca bobber riding in the 4th of July parade, Coeur d`Alene ID, with the Patriot Guard Riders.

    This picture I got by accident. I was going to a members house to loan him some tools and his wife was out taking pictures of the sunset. She saw a bike coming down the road and assumed it was her husband. After I pulled in the driveway she realized I was not him. She apologized for taking the pictures and asked if I wanted them deleted. I told her no just to send a copy to me.

    In the Green Swamp there was this One Lane Bridge, and I'm glad I got this shot before they put in a new bridge.

    There appears to be no clutch lever on the left bar, so my best guess hand shift and hand clutch
