........Photo Contest Winners Announced........

[trip]

Well the KawaNOW Staff did what I thought was an excellent job in evaluating and voting on the five pictures this past weekend. My thanks to SWB, Todd, Kawgirl, CactusJack, Ringadingh and Markg for their help deciding the winners.

Here are your winners.....




First Place goes to: Don Price, "Isaiahsdad", Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
http://www.kawanow.org/photocontest/1186.jpg
Nothing defines a Nomad any better than involving family. Don does a good job not only by dressing his son the same as him in biker attire, but the pose and facial expression is priceless. This photo makes us all want to grab our kids, take a shot on the Nomad, then hit the road. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif


Second Place goes to: Lawrence Sellers, "LW", Pasadena, Texas
http://www.kawanow.org/photocontest/6.jpg
This photo of Larry on vacation gives us the essence of why we ride. The location he is riding at and the pose and dress in this picture makes us all want to get on our Nomads and ride the wind. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif


Third Place goes to: George Stairs, "Ed", Dayton, Pennsylvania
http://www.kawanow.org/photocontest/345.jpg
Not only is this Nomad shot in a picturesque location, but the expression on Ed's face tells you that he is proud of his Nomad. Oh, and I wouldn't mess with Ed if I were you. The way he looks in that pic...he just might kick your ass. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif


And here are the two Honorable Mentions:

Bruce McCrary, Lexington, North Carolina
http://www.kawanow.org/photocontest/1000.jpg
This is an excellent photo of a Nomad slaying the dragon. With the curves detailed in the background, it's obvious that Bruce is having fun, but also concentrating on the road. Taken by Killboy.com, this photo is an excellent example of having fun on a Nomad. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif


Robert Bencsko, "Bob", Las Vegas, Nevada
http://www.kawanow.org/photocontest/1143.jpg
There's nothing like riding your 1500 Nomad with all the accessories and WW's to the beach. And not just any beach, but a picture perfect beach in California. http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif




In the next day or so, I will post these pics, along with the names of the winners on the front page of the KawaNOW website. Thanks to everyone for participating. I think we need to make this an annual event.

Congrats to the winners!

Congrats to all! The first pic was a great choice for the winner - reminds me of taking Marshall for his first ride not to long ago...

[psychocycle]

Great photos.

[lw]

Excellent choice for 1st place.
I've only been riding for two years, but it has been a source of enjoyment and a regular source of opportunities for daddy/daughter time.

[jd01]

Congrats to all winners! Great choices!

[isaiahsdad]

What an honor! Thank you all and congrats to the other finalists. I can not tell you how much joy this motorcycle has brought me and my family. So much so that I go into withdrawls (sp) as soon as I get off of it. I also would like to thank Trip, and everyone behind the scenes for providing such a great site for us Nomaders. This is truly one of the best forums I have ever had the pleasure of belonging too. Informative, friendly and just plain fun, holding to the tradition that is the Nomad and in such a short time. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Great choice in winners. Like others have already said - in a sense we are all winners for owning such an awesome bike. CONGRATS to all and especially to Don and his desire to include his family in his love for motorcycling. WAY TO GO DON!!
