Uhhhhh... somewhere just East of Valemount, but West of the British Columbia/Alberta Boarder on highway 16.

You can just barely see the mountains sticking up into the clouds, and the road whips to the right around them after the hill I'm sitting on.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Bikes just look cool on a rear stand

It's not about showing off. This thread is for ARTSY bike pics. There are plenty of places to show off just another pic of your bike. What we're looking for is well-placed and well-thought-out bike pictures with scenic or otherwise compelling backgrounds, or even some great photo-shop skills (Napoleon would kill for those! :) ).

The guard rail and guy walking around in the background of your pics is an instant giveaway that yours are not artsy. Verm's neat camera angle and Loonette's uber-cool background are examples of exactly what should be shared here.
