Just skimming, saw the pic, and was going to say that it had already been posted. 

 ::)

I think I'm going to update the forum rules to include something like:

You will be banned for suggesting any one of the following:
  • that all you need is a 25 mile long extension cord
  • that someone should put playing cards in the spokes of the wheels
  • that your bike keeps going and going - ya get it? like that Duracell bunny? ahilk, ahilk
  • that you need some kinda soundmaker so it sounds like ma Harley. But it will never have a soul like ma bike does
  • that it's coal-powered
  • that until you can recharge it in 5 minutes, it ain't worth sh!t
  • that you better be careful riding it in the rain - ya might get shocked
Okay. Rant over.  That was actually a pretty funny photoshop, Gavin. Consider yourself merely suspended, instead of banned.

Oh cr*p!  And I just got done referencing Brammofan in my "caption the photo" contest entry - right alongside a reference to fake sound effects.

OK, I'll go sit in a corner, now... :(

Well, my bike is only 60% coal-powered..

LOL - just saw it.  You're from RPI?  My best friend from high school almost flunked out of RPI.  Instead, he graduated from it with a degree in "Communications."  I told him it was like graduating from Harvard with a degree in HVAC servicing.

Yeah, I turned down MIT to go to RPI.  I would say that they got me with the free flowing beer, but I was a tea totalling nerd all through college.  :-[

Ha!  I found one posted mere moments ago, totally by accident.

Yikes. Only one clue left.

The first clue was the hardest to find, with a couple of levels of indirection to get to the final image. If the final clue is going to be as easy as that last few, then the winner is probably going to be whoever gets wind of the clue first.

Good luck everybody!

Hmmmm, well searching Instagram without a phone and app is hard...

it can be done...

the downside is I think Brammosays either put the wrong photo up....or Insta means something other than Instagram....

There is a photo put up that is 2 hours old (perfect timing), but is not of the Empulse.

The last one was pretty hard to find.  You might find a defaced version of it somewhere, though... ;)

Spied while looking for the last clue (this isn't the last clue, it's a teaser some guy named Brian McGee posted, apparently from the venue setup?):
