The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest
No, we're not talking road kill or Lycra clad power walkers. We're talking vehicles. Those monstrosities that don't quite fit in to the "unusual and unique" category that we have in another thread.
From now until December 31st, snap a pic of the ugliest vehicles you see on the road. Post them up. Whomever finds the "winner" scores themselves a free 2013 CCB calendar.
Rules: 1) It must be "on the road". No junk yard wrecks, backyard rust piles, or projects. Parking lots are fine, but tagged and road worthy at a minimum. 2) You must post a pic. No "I saw it! I swear!" or sketches on napkins.
That's it!

Re: The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest
This could be interesting... You forgot the Lycra folks who have the nordic poles. Oh wait, maybe that's just a european thing?? As you know, they are pretty strict around here about what can be on the road. But it'll be fun to see what y'all come up with.

Re: The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest
No-no, JD, there is a gal who wanders around down my neck of the woods in lycra, big fluffy sweater, knit cap, bug eyed sunglasses, Uggs and headphones. She also has the matching walking poles that she does tricks ala marching band - drum major. The poor gal is missing a few cards from the deck though.

Re: The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest
Gary - I think you have a mission now. Zack didn't specify "thing" so technically if she's on the road, she's fair game! LOL! One of those that are a few fries short of a happy meal? A sandwhich short of a picnic? Yeah, I know the kind.

Re: The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest
I wouldn't be able to leave the poles standing. She flips them around or does a balancing act on her hands with em. And as far as tagging her goes, she never leaves the sidewalk, so do I get extra points for difficult terrain?

Re: The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest

Re: The Ugliest Thing on the Road Contest
Amazing what people will drive around. The truck bent in half is dangerous!!
