OK. How about your Buell sitting in your driveway on it's side stand, shining like a pearl. A glove on the ground like you dropped it. |

I didn't make any rules, I just treat them more like guidelines anyway. |

Guidelines is pretty much what they are, but i think in order to get this thread going quick, the way it was last summer. Things just need to be obtainable for everybody. Ya know, something everybody has within distance. River, lake, food chain, school, funny sign, ect. Ya all know what i mean.. Go wonder through the first 20 pages if ya don't! Only problem with this thread so far is the really obscure and hard to find places. Like my grandpa used to say "Keep it simple stupid"

K.I.S.S. How about your Buell sitting in your driveway on it's side stand, shining like a pearl. That one's got to get done, I know a lot of y'all have nice shiny bikes |

I tried to get the wheelie pic, but the camera crapped out, and apparently my old man isn't trained on how to get the action shot(he is however awesome with the money shot!). It would probably help if i could figure out how to hold a wheelie a little longer! |

(he is however awesome with the money shot!) TMI! Save this one, she's as shiny as she gets! Washed her last night, just for this shot.
Next challenge: Your bike in front of a local landmark. Doesn't have to be famous or anything. Marker, your helmet on the seat. Extra points for an unusual landmark. Extra points equals 3 Internets. |

Originally, a landmark literally meant a geographic feature used by explorers and others to find their way back or through an area. In modern usage, a landmark includes anything that is easily recognizable, such as a monument, building, or other structure. In American English it is the main term used to designate places that might be of interest to tourists due to notable physical features or historical significance. Landmarks in the British English sense are often used for casual navigation, such as giving directions. This is done in American English as well. |

I was going to get it tonight, but as I was riding by where the marker I had in mind was, a local LEO was on my butt. Pulling off in front of him might have made him suspicious, especially when I whip out the camera, set my helmet on the seat, line up the shot, set the flash, then throw on the helmet and take off. |

So, since no one has done this one, does it mean I can do it? Or, does it mean I need to come up with another? Either way, just let me know. |

There where a few places i could have went, but since the College Football Hall of Fame is moving out of town soon, seemed like a good time to get a pic of it! Knute Rockne So, with the news of the CFHOF closing down and moving to Atlanta next year, how about your bike(no marker) next to any form of business that is closing down soon, or has already recently closed down. Whether its going out of business or moving out of country. With the current economy, should be easy. If this isn't done by tomorrow, i will do it myself! Glitch, yes you can do your own missions! I don't see why not! |

I was going to ride over to the town square and take a picture of the bike in front of where Larry Flynt was shot. The mission you just put up I can do in a few minutes, but I'll wait a give someone else a go. |

Being the forever optimist, I'm going to give it until tomorrow, if we've not got a winner I'll go get the picture. One reason I want to wait, is I want to come up with an easy one, that's fun as well. |

A local restaurant that closed last fall. 3500 sf, complete w/ equipment. I know the bldg sold for $100k in '05 because I missed buying it by 2-3 hours. They've renovated it nicely. So if you've had a dream of opening a little small town (2,000 population) here's your chance! Next challenge: Your bike parked next to another motorcycle for sale that's NOT at a dealership. Here's a shameless plug for my XB FS in the BWB classifieds: Toona's XB for sale |

NOT at a dealership. Does a small local motorcycle shop count as a dealership? |

I should have said "Private seller" but an independent shop will qualify. |
