This is what I got on my desktop at the moment, a picture posted by a pal here. For some reason, I find it very appealing even though only the seatpost is showing.

A confluence of random events that are somehow drawn together: the bike in the wallpaper picture is undoubtedly a Bruce Gordon by virtue of the fastback seatstay and binder bolt assembly. None other like it from any other builder.
Which is more Bruce Gordon of any sort than has been on this forum in years. No matter, still a great builder and that root beer colored BG in yopur wallpaper is still a superb bike.

just got new mac so nothing special right now , just a close up of some wet green grass...
I used to always have a shot i took of a mt lake up in the ADK. Upper Gull Lake, was a beautiful day, amazing hike after a difficult kayak trip into the trail head after a 30 min big boat ride to get us across the lake.
what a day!
Cant find that photo sadly.

Cool photo.I believe that the Nutley Velodrome was located on Park Avenue across the Passaic River from the Lyndhurst Diner, correct? But the photo shows a covered track, and the Nutley track was definitely not covered (I don't know about Newark). Here's a clip of midget auto racing at the Nutley Velodrome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yATwN7lEuU.
Also, the costumes in the photo look older than from 1933, which was when the Nutley Velodrome opened.

The name of this photo is "Tanker Dreams" and pops-up as wallpaper on maritime computers worldwide. I was Chief Mate when the photo was taken, and Duke (also on the Forum) was Captain as I recall. The ship is the Overseas New York, and was my first command after I kicked Duke down the ladderwell. This was taken while the ship was loading at the Alyeska Marine Terminal in Valdez, AK.

I'm trying to post a pic with the same fill the screen quality as is shown in your post. What is the trick? I have Imgur available. I just don't know how to maximize the image size to the screen space and size restrictions on Paceline.
Thanks much,

Anyone have any cycling related backgrounds that are very wide?
