Storm tonight north of Toowoomba picked up speed and came in faster than I was expecting. Which explains the photo from a housing estate

I liked this contrast of suit carrier and old bike especially the old briefcase on the luggage rack :-)
A build for Alego's challenge for french RLOC BrickPirate to build sci-fi speeder using the rotor blade part 62743.
One night I got the urge to make a super sleek, open top racer using my 2 favourite colours (black and dark red). I wanted it to be a really dense, compact build with a smooth upper body and badass looking engine chassis underneath. So I did.

Ich habe kürzlich alle meine alten 4x5 inch schwarzweiß-Filme digitalisiert - und begonnen hat alles 1978 mit dieser alten Speed Graphic mit adaptiertem Aero-Ektar, die mir eine Freundin aus den USA mitgebracht hat
Lately i digitized my old 4x5 inch b&w films. It all began with this old Speed Graphic with an adapted Aero-Ektar a friend brought back from the United States in 1978.
You wanna guess where this Swamp darner was hanging before it was hanging on this branch? Would you believe: on my nose?
Story: We're used to these big (almost 4" long) darners playing with us: zipping around us and right by our heads at high speed (River cruisers do this too). I watched this Swamp zoom down headed right towards me from a distance, stop and hover inches in front of my eyes - as if making a decision - what a view! I loved just seeing her so close. Then suddenly ... SMACK! ... she attached to my nose! My husband saw the whole thing and was trying to get his phone out to get a shot as I turned toward him laughing - this Swamp hanging vertically on my face (he said its footies were just under my glasses). He missed the shot but lucky again - it went and perched on this tree branch ( her eyes look purple instead of their typical blue - maybe she was new to this world?). We've had mostly Blackwater clubtails & Gray petaltails land all over us - but this perspective of feeling like the bullseye on a dart board and she was the dart - was one I'll never forget. at the wetlands - this weekend, North Georgia
Happy Dragonfly Monday!
Another speeder to add to the grid. It came together during last weekend's 24 hours of Spa-Francorchamps, a GTWC race that I rather enjoyed. So that's the name.
Engines were the first thing to get built, there's a little breakdown of them at the end of the photostream but it's nothing hugely complex. After that it was the front stabilisers and then I realised I needed to connect those parts to some kind of cockpit.
I ended up with quite an industrial-looking cockpit, using my favourite part again, but inverted this time and with the 4-wide speed champions windscreen on top, which was good to use. I have lots of them.
I'll obtain a couple of 2x2 semicircle tiles and switch them out with the round ones at the front, but aside from that this was just a fun little build that I'm happy enough with. Got a decent amount of Star-Warsy greebling in, so hopefully the racing bulls graphics on the wedges can be excused as Fambaas from Naboo, or some other creature from the lore!
There's a couple of pictures with this and the junkyard speeder too, so keep scrolling.
I meant to upload this earlier in the day, the reason I didn't is because I'm already working through speeder number three. This next one is red and certainly not a Ferrari...
al final de la carrera...... ganó!!!
pero lo que mas me gustó es que este animalito sonaba como un F1
simplemente maravilloso!!!!
Hello, these are two BARC-Speeders from Clone Wars which I have built. There are two Versions: a red and a blue one. Next to them there is a Clone-Officer and ARC-trooper Fives. I‘m really happy with the result and hope you all like it👍😁. If you‘ve got suggestions, write them in the comments below. Bye! 🙋♂️
The smallest diving duck in North America, the Bufflehead breeds in ponds and small lakes in Canada, and winters in much of the United States. As shown, males are glossy dark purple-green with large white patch covering the entire back of the head. Black back, white underparts.
This one speeds along a canal at Ridgefield national wildlife refuge in SW Washington. Best viewed large on black background.
Possibly the biggest, baddest, most bulbous speeder bike to emerge from the drawing boards of Llwyngwril Systems. The Turbinia was based around a massive turbine.
Centuries later, all the evidence left for its existence are these four archive photos. They leave many questions unanswered:
Was the giant turbine some form of centrifugal compressor? If so, were did the all of air go? The nozzles on the rear of the bike are quite small.
As the turbine made up a considerable part of the mass of the speeder bike and was effectively a large gyroscope, how the Turbinia generate enough turning force to manoeuvre?
How did the pilot get up to the cockpit?
The mechanics of the anti-gravity systems needed for the Turbinia to hover are, of course, simple and well known.
