Perhaps a good way of getting everyone involved and making it a club effort is to allow each member to submit one picture for the month that their "bike year" will be featured.
It can be whatever takes their fancy - creative or plain.....
All submissions that are received by the cutoff date given are then pre-approved by AHC and those that make the cut are posted for members to vote on their choice for each month. Maybe give a week and then close that too.
The submission for each month with the greatest number of votes by members gets in the calendar.
Benefits are;
1. Members do all the work rather than one poor (passionate, crazy, bat-like) sod
2. AHC endorsed
3. Members together determine the layout for 'their' club calendar - and it will be the active members who use the forum regularly who will be voting - and who would be most likely to get a calendar anyway.
Perhaps the winning submissions all receive a calendar for their efforts or a framed copy of their submission with a "AHC Calendar 2015 - March" (or whatever theirs was) at the bottom. I'd be happy to add a few bucks towards that kind of award.
You should find out if they can do something like a contact sheet with every submission (thumbnail style) at the back of the calendar - so all the effort of the club is included in a small way.
Whatever happens, I'm happy to pre-order and pre-pay for one.
