Our latest reader-submitted Photo Gallery has been posted, along with a special year-end gallery, featuring contest winners from throughout 2006.

Of course, a new gallery also means the naming of the winner of ourmost recent contest.

Take the time to wander through that gallery and see if you agree or disagree with our choice of winners this week. Considering some of our past winners, you might notice our bias for “working bikes,” those rides people use for every day work and transportation. Reflecting that, we really appreciated the bike and the people in Jim Tannenhill’s “Water portage in China.”

Congratulations Jim. Nice work. Please drop us a note at Rosters@InsideInc.comto work out the details and we’ll send you a copy of David Brinton's 2007Les Héros du Vélo calendar.

Go ahead and take a look at our latest gallery,decide what you like and let us know what you think by dropping a noteto Rosters@InsideInc.com.

Also take the time to scan a special year-end gallery, featuring contest winners from throughout 2006. We’ll announce the “Best of ‘06” winner on Wednesday.

If you would care to submit a photo for our next round, use the same address,but do us a favor and read the rules first.
