 This is supposed to be a good biking photo. when this is primarily only good because of the landscape.

 Amazing shot! love the feel

 @schweetcutuk. I disagree, when I look at that I think thats one of the reasons i mountain bike. Sure Its for the speed, the adrenaline, and the airtime. But when you are sitting at the top of a mountain, looking at an awesome landscape (mind you I dont pedal to get there Razz ) I just think wow, this is what biking is about.
  • 98
 The Sky, and the mist, are so amazing, but i wish it was better riding. Like its not bad riding, but if it was dirt jumping or downhill or free ride, i think it would be better, but nice Pod ! tup
  • 113
 This is actually insane!. i fucking love it
  • 224
 ..... boobies............. yup...
  • 64
 First Romanian POD?
I think...
  • 32
 Skee a mai fost un pod din romania din cate imi aduc aminte Wink bv fotografului!Big Grin
  • 31
 a mai fost, dar era o poza luata de la nemti

 @ conshow3: I totally agree!!!

 I like it!

 There aint many sports where you get to witness and be around scenery like this.
  • 25
 Genius! (dute in mortii tai, nu tia ajuns pow-u de pe db?) Ba pe bune ma surprins placut asta Smile ) :*
  • 83
 coming from a park rider, i think this photo is amazing. he may not be pinning or hucking or throwing a huge whip, but it makes me wanna ride.
  • 172
 I actually think this DOES deserve to get POD. Biking is not only about just hucking yourself off a cliff and sh*t like that. Remember that there are people who are older, and ride for pleasure. If being outdoors, and enjoying the beauty of nature while biking is what you like, and it is portrayed here in this photo, then I think that is a part of the sport and it deserves POD, seeing as it has been captured perfectly. Sometimes we all need to slow down and take in the scenery.
  • 133
 k i didn't even read the posts above because i am CERTAIN since it is a XC pod there are people bitching, so THIS DOES DESERVE POD, because well....it is pod...it is a trail blazer riding through a field,it gets away from all the pansies to ride perfectly groomed tracks, and jumps you can't fcuk up. this to me captures why mountain biking got so big because you can go anywhere through anything. EFF the nay sayer and keep riding.

 who the hell gets pumped up about riding through a field at sunset? if you do then you are gay
  • 214
 yep im gay i'll go let my gf know now. do you tihnk before your speak out of your ass?
  • 93
 lucky guy, i would love to ride xc on such a nice brisk morning like this
  • 41
 i dont even ride XC, but with a view like that, damn i'd love to tear around that field.
  • 61
 Mazekwon: your my hero!!
but seriously, i do XC more than anything else, i love it! just because your not flying through the air or shredding down the side of a mountain doesnt mean it sucks. XC is just another form of mountain biking. its not for people without balls. just because it isnt your cup of tea doesnt mean you gotta bash it! so EFF YOU HATERS!!!!

flag cools20 (Jul 23, 2010 at 12:19) (Below Threshold)
 it would be such a better shot if there was no biker in it. or at least some dirt jumps in it
  • 91
 I absolutely LOVE hucking and droping and whiping.
But I also love this picture, it makes me want to go out and ride.
Maybe I am old or gay because I like the scenery and actally think it would be a lot of fun to ride there, but maybe I am not.
And maybe those who say I am, are just narrow-minded Idiots.
What are you crying for you morrons? Im sure that tomorow there will be just another DH or FR or Dirt POD with hucking, droping or whiping waiting just ahead.
Like all the Days!

I for myself will enjoy the alternation until then.
  • 23
 wow...

 There has to be XC PODs sometimes... it's not pinkdownhillbike or pinkdirtjumpbike...

 haha ur gay ^^
  • 22
 these comments are soooo cliche
  • 21
 @cools20; same landscape, but longer grass and something like semenuk jumping in the field from life cycles... so basically todays pod and this: www.lifecyclesfilm.com/files/images/1%20photo.jpg
also this is gotta be my fav pod so far and this is coming from a hardcore dirt jump ad street rider
  • 25
 wow if this classifies as a pod then i am king of the world, this is something that should just be in a magazine for explore the outdoors. This is no where near as good as any of the other pods, i actually wanna see someone riding my 5 year or cousin could seriously ride this.
  • 10
 Well said newworlddisorder, mitchell open your mind a bit, POD isn't about just the biggest riding, its about the best photos, and from a photography point of view this is stunning. Just because its not some sick DH or FR shot. I mean, how many insane DH photos are there where its basically a guy or girl riding their bike through the woods. Doesn't stop them looking insane, and its all down to the photography
  • 113
 It's a great photo. It represents mountainbiking, It doesn't have to be something extreme. It deserves to be POD!Big Grin
  • 50
 That's an awesome shot Props to the photographer. I am a little surprised by all the XC hate, no one said liking this shot meant you had to ride XC yourself. It is great exercise and a hella lot more fun than kicking it in the gym. Don't call the shot lame just cause its not the kind of riding you do. Lets just agree we all like to bike even if its for different reasons and give props to an awesome shot.
  • 50
 Agreed 100%. POD shouldn't always be about the most insane, technical, and gnarly riding possible. When I see this pic, I think of how much I love riding my bike. The pure joy of getting outdoors is widley underestemated today. People all want to have the most rad ride possible. And it usually turns out that way anyhow. POD is to show people having fun, and getting an awesome shot while doing so. Well said digilog! Keep riding.
  • 50
 This is an amazing photo. To every single person being rude about this not being a crazy dh picture, just check out name of what you are looking at " PICTURE of the day". At no point does it say " KNARLIEST MOST EXTREME DH PHOTO", so show some respect to the people who are not only talented on bikes but behind the lens of a camera. This is a great shot
  • 12
 I completely agree with what you are saying but I think that this picture isnt great for the POD because it dosent represent the talent of a rider, it without a doubt represents the talent of the photographer and the beautiful sights we get to see as mountain bikers.
  • 20
 twigme - since when was POD about the talent of a rider? its Picture of the day.. not Riding of the day!
  • 12
 I just believe that one should represent there talent on a bike for the POD, to me this picture doesn't show much talent. There is nothing saying it is about the talent of a rider nor the beauty of the scene. I respect your oppinion but I am just stating my own oppinion.
  • 13
 Talent of the photographer? This looks like a point and shoot situation to me. Anyone standing there could have taken this picture with a cheap camera.
  • 10
 I have to strongly disagree with you there. Any half decent photographer would know in order to get POD you have to have some serious luck or some serious skill.. or times like these where you have to have both!
  • 93
 If you dont like this POD, there will be a new one tomorrow. Wink
Personally, I dont mind rides at sunset/sunrise on my XC for fun.
  • 61
 Truly Awesome photo. I can only imagine how amazing that guy thinks the view is on it's own, and then realizes he's doing what he loves most to boot! don't knock it till you've tried it folks.
  • 30
 i ride XC and freeride and seeing that pic is stellar, its crisp and clean, and to ride uphill, to get to a point like that in the pic is amazing, and sometimes its few and far between, i love DH and all that sh*t but after a while its the same sh*t over and over, and i saw someone say hey this is a bike website, well hey buddy guess what it it wasnt for riding like this way back when there would be no DH or FR if people like this didnt push it and imagine we'd still all be riding fat tires and steel frame with weird beach cruiser handle bars, so remember who paved the way, or in this case dusted the trail for people who ride DH and wanna see hucks and jumps, and if u cant remember what its all about, sell your bike and go find a way to look cool somewhere else
  • 20
 POD YES! this is one of those amazing zennish moments that make you realize how good we (mtbers) got it.Most people live in a concreat jungle and work in a cubical and go hike in a regional park or hike on a paved path to get thier nature fix....(processed)This is the real thing,un processed and raw...I love it.
  • 83
 sweet!.. you have my vote for POD!! thats awesome!
  • 82
 I Love Pinkbike
  • 31
 This is what it is all about, I believe that POD should inspire people to grab their helmets and get on their bikes. This definitely does it for me. I think I am going to go for a ride Big Grin Love it
  • 41
 Great photo, nice to see the other side of things. Can't be huge jumps and powerslides all the time as there is more to biking then that.
  • 30
 i like these pods better then Dh pods, dont get me wrong i love dh pods but these pods really show the enviroment and the rider together because that mountain biking
  • 30
 i ride DH an DJ and i still think this photo is awesome so everyone stop bitching about it and respect the beauty of this amazing photo.
  • 10
 fantastic shot!! even if there isn't any riding in there, it makes me happy, and proud to be a mtb rider. the 12 pb users bitching cos there is no backflip in this pic makes me very very sad. but then i look at the picture, and it makes me happy again
  • 53
 I like this one quite alot. I think it was time to go from the all out crazy DH-ers to something a little more relaxed. Nice shot!
  • 40
 now that's what I call POD
  • 40
 Beautiful. No reason to complain about this POD
  • 21
 i'm lovin this picture, and the fact pinkbike MAY actually start respecting all aspects of riding. I hate XC and trash talk them always, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve some recognition. Thanks PB.
  • 50
 This makes me smile. Smile

 well not diggin the riding but the landscaping is prime... big props to photographer

 I signed in simply to say... great shot. I reckon the rider should have pulled off a manual though.
  • 20
 I do believe This is the first Xc photo that has inspired me enough to comment..

Great photo . Smile
  • 10
 Who said it has to be just riding... Just look at it and tell me it's not POD worthy. Every single detail in that thing is visible. Beauty!

 A mai fost inca un POD din Romania, pacat ca poza era de altundeva. Cel care a upload-at poza era roman, avea cont roman, era din Cluj tipul, dar poza sigur nu era din Romania.

 www.pinkbike.com/photo/2356858 - Ca sa va convingeti. Smile
  • 10
 M-am uitat la ceva comenturi si cel care a pus-o zicea ca poza este facuta in Germania si ca a luat-o de pe net si ca nu s-a putut abtine sa nu o puna...deci concluzia o intelegei si voiSmile
  • 10
 Am mentionat ca poza nu e din Romania, in schimb cel care a upload-at-o e, ceea ce inseamna ca Romania a mai avut un POD inainte.
  • 10
 Mai, tu nu stiu daca ai inteles, el a luat-o de pe net, nu el a facut-o nu el a editat-o nu nimic, a luat-o, nu a respectat drepturile de autor si a pus-o...intelegi?
E nasol, nu as considera-o aia prima poza POD de aiciSmile
  • 10
 Am spus ca poza propriu-zisa nu e din Romania, autorul e din Romania, ceea ce face oarecum ca POD-ul sa fie din Romania, deoarece poza a fost upload-ata de un roman. Sau nu?
  • 11
 thats what i asking me to
