Biker Selfies Photo Contest
 
Send in your best Biker Selfie photo outside ANY MotoGoLoco Endorsed bike friendly venue and you’ll automatically be entered into our prize draw to win a free trip on us.

http://www.motogoloco.com/blog/wp-co...elfies-750.png

There’s a night away for two at a venue of your choosing up for grabs.

There’s no limit to the number of photos you can submit, in fact the more you send in the better your chances of winning.

*Bonus points MAY be available if you're better looking than the pair in the photo above! (both of whom will probably kill me for that).

Full details:

It's 120 miles to my nearest venue, I don't think so!

Riding a motorcycle for 120 miles...? For fun??!

Heaven forbid.

My bike typically gets another 200 miles on the clock every time it leaves the drive.
Unfortunately it' s more like 5000 to my nearest venue. :(


Great idea for a contest though.

Each way. 240 miles just to take a selfie, surely nobody is that desperate...... anyway, my ugly mug isn't going to win anything!

240 miles on your bike sounds great think of the fun you'll have getting there.

I do have one question Mr Mio why do you always cut these competitions short. if it had run to the end of the month we could have had an amazing GM selfie for your site... Ah well. better go hunting for a suitable place to take a frightening picture

One might have thought so, yes...

Normally it's to test the water a bit with an idea - if it takes off, then we'll either look at extending it or maybe re-running the idea again later.

But, seeing as it's you, DONE! New deadline is close of play on SUNDAY 31ST AUGUST. I can't possibly imagine what might be taking place around that weekend, so I expect good things from you people!

Don't say I'm not good to you b*ggers! ;)

Dude... don't take this the wrong way, but have you never just wanted an excuse to get out and ride your bike...?
Is a 240 mile ride 'just to take a selfie' really much different to riding 240 miles for fish & chips, or an ice cream? What do we have bikes for if not to ride them?

I dunno - maybe I'm weird for actually enjoying the idea of riding my motorbike.

Clearly you haven't seen any of the ugly buggers that work here then... The bar is not set high my friend, I can assure you ;)

I have only ever taken 1 "selfie" and it was at Applecross campsite. So, if you could add that to your list of biker friendly venues (which it most definately is!) then i will enter.

Ha - I'll do my best.

I love the Applecross Inn was there last week in fact - a pretty scary prospect considering I'm (pretty damn) allergic to shellfish. It certainly made for an 'exciting' lunch as all my friends tucked into prawns, crabs and lobster while I sat akwardly at the other end of the table with my 'safe' fish supper from the van outside.

It's a frustrating prospect to know that something you very much would like to eat (i.e. THAT!!), could kill you!
