*This month we are seeking photos of
buses with a new "Black Handle" bike rack#. If you submit a photo (or two) meeting this criterion, you may post up to three photos but you may only submit a maximum of 2 photos of any particular bus.
To ensure consistency, photos must be displayed with a width of 640 (or height if 640 if a "portrait" aspect) - photos wider than 640 are required to use the option width=640 or height=640 in the image tag. For example:
[img width=640] instead of
[img].
Submissions close midnight

Voting will commence on 27 April. Voting will close on 1 May.
# The bike rack must be visible in the photo to qualify. For a full list of bikes with black handled DL2 bike racks, refer to this post (http://actbus.net/forum/index.php?topic=4258.0). There's quite a few to choose from.
