¿Calcetines?

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

I have no idea why my friend, Erico, made this movie, but here it is.

Please keep sending in your photos so we can avoid tonto things like this.

Stretchy Pants

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

This video is presented for no particular reason, other than that I am a huge fan of the Luchadors. Start watching at 0:51.

Perhaps this will inspire you to take photos of your fine bicycling ropa de ciclismo?

¡Andar en bicicleta en el frío!

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

It is amazing how I, Rogelio, am able to inspire members of the club to ride their bicycles and take photographs. Apparently I inspire in people feelings they didn't know they have!

Here is rider André Hamel, who lives in a very frio place: Quebec city, in the place of Cañada. He lives where there is nieve y die, so he must ride indoors. But ride he does! And now, inspired by me, he also takes photos ... indoors.

Here is André's email to me:

Buenos dias senor Rogelio!

I am a DBC member living in Quebec city, Canada and it's actually my 3rd March Madness.

Unfortunately this year I will not ride in lovely Davis in March and winter is still very harsh in northeast.

So I must ride my stationnary bike inside. I simulate a 30 minutes climb of the Cantalow andI record 6 miles after each session.

I've been lucky to enjoy one single day in March so far during wich temp was approx 20F, breezybut (almost) dry streets that allowed me to ride for 13 miles outdoor on my cyclocross bike.

This picture shows me at the exact moment I reach my modest 125 miles goal today !

These are smalls numbers but I must work hard to get them done !

Happy to be a virtual member of your bunch,
André Hamel

"Por Rogelio También"

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

A local person who says she is a cyclist sent these photos today. She does not ride a bicycle in any photo, but my friend Eric says she used to ride un poquito. So here they are, from Señora Deb Banks.

Only a few more days to take photos for the contest!

Photos from ... Not California?

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

Sorry to have been away so long. Work on my new telenovela is very, very hard. Being this handsome does not come easily? Well, easy for me, but the others have to work at it, and just watching them makes me tired.

So, my friend Eric offered these photos from a ride which he did in a place called Portland, which he said is in Orego'n. I think that is in the Estados Unidos, but I'm not sure.

Here are the pictures.

And here are a few more.

¡The Photos Keep Coming!

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

I asked, and you responded. Here are some more Locura de Marzo photographs, courtesy of July Sly:

And in case you need more inspiration, here am I:

¡Mas Photos!

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

I asked you for photographicas, and you responded. Here are a few more ... Disfrutar!

A self portrait. I love self-portraits!

This lago reminds me of the view from my sumer casa.

Keep taking photos, everyone! Send them to campyonlyguy [at] me [dotcom]

¡Cinco Amigos!

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

Los photos are starting to arrive. Here is another from Marnelle Gleason, with five fine muchachos and muchachas.

Ejemplar!

¡Cerveza!

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

I do not know this Darrell person, the hombre que está loco por los coches eléctricos, but he shares my love of cerveza! Here is his photo:

Senor Darrell, can you please explain why the green bicycle saddle?

Donde Esta Los Photos?

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

I enjoy thinking about bicycle riding. Riding bicycles, not so much.

It is now the 8th day of Marzo, and I hope that the inspiration provided by me, Rogelio, has resulted in many fine photographs! 

If you are in need of further inspiración, here are two photos taken by Eric, whose work on the annual photo contest I am doing this year.

El Jefe, Dan Shadoan. He tells others to ride, and off they go. Dan is muy inteligente! The riders who do what he says, not so much.

A rider working very hard uphill. Why do they do this?

¡Start Photographing!

¡Buenos dias, Mis Amores! It is I, Rogelio, your host for this year's Locura de Marzo contest of photographs.

Today is first day of Marzo, which means it is time to start taking photographs!

To help inspire you, I am sending this photograph of something beautiful ... Me!

Remember the categorias of the photographs:

• Most handsome photo of a male bike rider (I thought of this one first!)

• Most beautiful photo of a female bike rider

• Most beautiful photograph of a bicycle of either sexo (Do they have sexes? Rogelio does not know)

• Best photograph in the style of a telenovela (such as the one of which I am of course the largest star)

• Best photograph of cyclists enjoying comida mexicana, before or after a ride

• Best photograph of me, Rogelio (in case you are lucky enough to see me in real life!)

• Best photograph of bicycles in naturaleza, especially if the photo brings to mind my own handsomeness 

• The ardilla azul, a silly category for silly photos that Eric said I must include.

You can email your photos to Eric: campyonlyguy [at] me [dot] com or following the reglas complicadas
