FJR Forum 'Everywhere' Compilation

[Scab]

Or, "Bad to the bone" and only use "crash" pics.

I'll help with whatever you need. I have actually written a good bit of poetry and lyrics is just poetry with a beat. Bring it on. One might not guess it by my on-web personna, but my I.Q. is actually well into the double digits. I'm talking better than 39, too.

Runnin' Down the Dream - Tom Petty

The TWT song was already written using Texas towns, they just happen to have been photographed everywhere......man.

"They call me the breeze....I keep rollin' down the road...." LynyrdSkynrd ???

Oooh, maybe for the credits? Excellent!

Yeah, that would work. I love it when I'm riding the Sierra "fun" roads and that comes through my headphones. I should mention it takes great self-control to NOT "pick-up-the-pace". :yahoo:

Somehow, that song always makes me think of "Mr. Smooth".

 

[Old Michael]

Just a thought. A newbie thought, so feel free to ignore.

Petty's newer record, Highway Companion, includes a good "riding" song-Saving Grace.

The lyrics might lend themselves well to motorcycle riding images. And it's sort of contemporary - like I'd know.

Or something with beer in it...

I saw our very own Don Roger in the vid! very cool!

Okay, Timmy-boy, I have downloaded and viewed the TWT version using my new and improved, non-policed, high-speed enema-net home connection. Fo shure, count me in. Let's get to writing. I also like Mikey's idea for a credit song. That also satisfies my desire for the pics of all our contributing peeps. Perhaps as a beginning, we can solicit (without being arrested, new for you) from the membership interesting pics that are hopefully landmarks or easily recognized places. Let's get some pics in, then sharpen the pencils. I mean, sheesh, we only have till July.

Do you want just people and the landmark, or people, the bike, and the landmark. For instance, I've got a couple of me standing on the 4-corners state location, but it would be tough to get a bike in that picture...

Peeps only would be cool in that case. We'll need bikes by town and city signs, bikes stuck between fence posts -snerk-, FJR people and the whole shootin' match. It'll be a pick and choose deal as to what gets into the final cut, but it will be fun.

For example, I'm doing a solo excursion soon that I'll can score a bunch of cool town signs, Nat'l Parks and other landmark shots.

Scabby, you can write the lyrics? Cool! Who can put it to music and record it? Ahem...

I think once these few basics are settled, I think I ask admins to lock this and I'll start I new 'working' Everywhere thread, where folks can start posting photo's. I'll prolly need to figger out how to tag the photos with photog credits and stuff, but that's minor.

More ideas, thoughts?

Well, let's see if some actual pictures from today's ride can't start this thing off...

My little town:

Infamous Ojai, which one?

Gorman:

Filler shot:

Filler shot, Del Valle Field, Pump #7:

Piru:

Fillmore:

General guidelines:

Town or city signs, with FJR or owner(s) preferably

National Park Signs/shots

Landmarks signs or shots

Events - WFO, EOM etc.

You post 'em, I'll judge 'em. Lyricist will have to pick 'em, I guess. Be prepared to email full size originals.

Who's next? Bueller?

The best thing about this is going back through the thousands of photos I've taken this year from places all over. I'll spare y'all, but it's enjoyable to me.

More ideas, thoughts?

For filler pictures, there must be hundreds of photos on "The Forum" from "Group Rides" with multiple bikes in different terrain. Even the "groups" rides from different Owners Meets.

That's true, but I'm not inclined to go on a photo hunt. Peep's wanna contribute, they gotta post 'em here.

[twowheelnut]

Excellent!

From my Florida's Gulf Coast thread. No identifying signs, but nice, and a contrast to the mountains and deserts everybody else seems to ride through. B)

Elevation, 4.

 

[twowheelnut]

Oh, WINNAH! :good:

 

[Scab]

Hey, where's all the pictures? We can't write a song without pictures! Start digging through the electro-picture boxes and throw 'em out here.
