Great 25th event with the most and best bikes I've seen. But as Brent would say, it's the people not the bikes that make this the place to be. Thanks Nancy, Kurt, Jeff and all pack them in Almost ready to ride Dwayne says it is cold up here Paint me a blue sky all 4 days, perfect

NEED SOME ACTION PHOTOS - DRAGON

Hi VYR Attendees,
If anyone downloaded an action photo from the Dragon, I would like to have it for the 2027 flyer. I'm sick of my photos being on these things.

Please post an action photo so I can grab it and put it on the 2027 flyer. OBVIOUSLY, this must be on a VINTAGE YAMAHA!

If you know the date and time you rode The Dragon you can find your pictures at these two sites, these are taken by the photographers you see along US129. They'll have a watermark and can download them as is or pay to have the full high resolution version

Hi Len,

I'm familiar with the process, I've purchased many. However, I would prefer not to BUY a photo(s) of someone else's ride.

If someone else purchases one, it will come without the logos used to prevent "SNIPPING" of a photo. If they then can provide a copy to me, I will then also assume I have their permission to use it on the 2027 Flyer.

I'm not certain if I will attend in 2027. I'd therefore rather have another person's Vintage Bike on the flyers.

I guess that was my initial idea, having people buy their own picture to share with you for next years artwork. Perhaps that could have been communicated better

As to not returning next year I can understand peoples frustration with how bike culture has shifted up here, it's as if everyone has a death wish these days out on The Dragon. Can assure you that it's not just here, the folks I know that travel like I do are seeing it everywhere this year.

Here's a pic of the 82 Seca 750 that I've had a thread or two about over the last year on the forum. I can't be there in person, however the bike can make an appearance from a ride to the hippie town of Guffey, Colorado.

Great that you could ride your Seca 750 in absentia at VYR

Getting that Seca on the road was a project but great to see it out there in Guffey
Looks great too ......
