We used to have a large poster of that hanging in the womens bathroom in the bike shop.
Now that I think of it, I don't know where it went....
I'd hit it.
Edit to add: 2x.
It definitely is a great shot:eek: Years ago, there was also a poster with Marla Streb on her mtn bike like this. IT was on the cover of Outside magazine, and just about everywhere in the industry at that time. Looks like the camp for Lance thought it was a great idea as well.:p:
is this the wet side view of him on his bike? (sorry I can't get to Flicker from work)
You mean this one?Quote:

Yes, that's it. It seems that they are very similar, at least in the layout and thought behind the pic.:)
Yep, it's the very same 'shocking' photo that was DELETED from TE when you posted it....apparently too horrifyingly vulgar for some ladies who promptly complained about it to the powers that be. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :cool:Quote:

Yes, Lance's came first.
The complaints were probably only asking for members to have the courtesy of following Forum rules (non-applicable sections removed):Quote:

Forums Are Monitored
We will routinely review posted messages to ensure that message content meets the requirements set herein. Messages not in line with this stated policy will be edited or deleted, at our discretion. Repeat offenders may be temporarily or permanently banned from the forums.
* Art or Porn?
Artistic nudes that do not reveal genitalia are permissible, but threads containing such images should be prefixed with NSFW: in the title. Also, if the image could be considered controversial, an explanation of such should be made in the post, and the image should be linked to rather than embedded in the post.
** What Is Copyright Infringement?
"Creative works" such as text, photos, and drawings are automatically protected by Copyright at the time of their creation. Unless the author/photographer/artist explicitly grants permission to reproduce the work, you most likely do not have the right to cut-n-paste the work into the forums.
*** What is Direct/Hot-Linking?
Direct Linking occurs when you "pull" a photo directly from a different website for embedded display in your post. If you do this without permission from the site on which the photo is hosted, you are in effect stealing bandwidth from them.
For instance, posting the Leibovitz picture can only be done through copyright infringement or hot-linking. Linking to it with a NSFW complies with the rules (at least, that is my interpretation). I suspect that flickr account is collecting a nice set of copyrighted photos that are not owned by the flickr account owner.
Oh copyright infringement you heartless master.... :D
Oh I see....TE members were complaining about the copyright/hot-linking infringement issues of the Lance photo...but didn't care about that for the other photos on the same thread. I get it now... :cool:
Lisa, if you want to make A Thing about this, just say the word. :rolleyes:
Have seen the Lance photo elsewhere ages ago. Not on TE. Didn't realize it was Lance.
Never seen the Marla photo before.
True, certain elements of cycling popular culture bypass me..alot.
