So for those of you who have met MissYorkie_Chris, my long-suffering and brave better half, you will be aware of her mad_skillz at doing a very passable Japanese tourist impression and taking pictures of everything.

So, we have been away to the Glencoe Massacre rideout this weekend, and came home yesterday after taking in some of the brilliant scenery around the west coast and the Isle of Skye. Needless to say, she has been busy :)


So, the competition, for a chance to win unique mystery prize of questionable value to anyone:

How many photographs did Maria take on the trip?

Answers in this thread, nearest one wins it! :smt040

No comment to any of the above, at all, be that presence or not of camera itself, spare batteries, cards of whatever size etc etc etc!

Take a guess :smt040

Well my sister managed over an incredible 2000 at Goodwood Festival this time last year!

So I'm gonna say 1,666 since Maria must have spent a fair few hours in the saddle each day.

Nahh, I seem to have noticed that famous homemade fender extenda of his is rather shorter than usual last night...perhaps hes giving away a piece of SV history!

Saying that there should be another comp to guess the mileage of the drainpipe fender extenda:p
