Can you find some nice cycling pics and print them out yourself in an 8x10 format?
I wouldn't get too spendy as they are apt to be exposed to mositure.

How about finding an old bicycle, with the baskets, put in front of some sunflowers or a flower bed and take some pics. I did that this summer with my old bike and they turned out really nice. I plan on enlarging them and hanging them in a hallway. You've got scenery and a bike with no persons in them. Just a suggestion.

I think pics of you and your hubby would be fine. Like others have said, if the photos are taken from afar, no one will feel like you are watching them while they "do their business."
And since they'd be distance shots, there would probably be plenty of that beautiful Texas hill country in the photos, as well -- who doesn't want to look at that?!

And pictures of nice scenery, like a breathtaking view from a ride, with one of you in the foreground on bike admiring it, i.e. photo taken from behind, could be really nice.

I have a wall like this in my house, all my photos taken while climbing or of good views at different climbing areas, so i don't think it'll be too weird. It's a good conversation piece, if nothing else! My friend has a funny picture of himself climbing in red rocks, hanging in his bathroom. The good kind of people will just find that stuff amusing or quirky!

You're asking us if it would be weird?
I don't think it would be, either.Speed comes from what you put behind you. - Judi Ketteler

Yeah, what was I thinking? My dad, mom and brother looked at the toilet paper holder and all said "I don't get it, what the heck is it?"

I am thinking it could be quite nice if careful selection is made. But I will have to see if I have a couple that will work.
Dad also cautioned me that I will have to redo the entire bathroom to sell the house and also paint "the ugly maroon study". He is a longhorn fan so the maroon is hideous. Oh and just in case you are wondering it is only the area under the chair rail (33") that is maroon, not the whole room.
