This weather we are having is HORRIBLE! I MAY be able to get out on Thursday, but then again they are calling for 50 degrees. |

Weather here is horrible too, but I don't have a car at the moment. I have a glove on the left side of the bars, hard to see.
Give me a bit to come up with a new challenge, I'm still drying and thawing out. Beugs |

Ok, got a new challenge and I hope it has not been done before. I want a picture of your bike in front of a really odd car, truck, van, etc. The kind of vehicle you might see on youdrivewhat.com. If you can't find anything like that an exotic could be substituted, I like them too. Just some sort of automotive eye candy. |

the owner/fabricator walked out and said hi. he spoke a bit about how he did it. the fenders are from a ford something-or other, and the rest was all fabricated. the last half of the bed folds up to allow access to the motor, and there is storage under the front half accessable from inside the cab. i wanna see your bike ... |

at your church or church event. MARKER IS: your rendition of your bike in sidewalk chalk. or a KFC bucket the stick of side walk chalk is easier and safer to ride with. and it'd be nice to know i'm not the only one who's drawn my own bike in sidewalk chalk, but the bucket is a marker from back in the d-zay. |

even if you only go to church twice a year, this should be one of those times. .... but if it is against your beliefs to go to a church; please draw your bike in chalk at KFC, AND PUT A BUCKET ON THE REAR TIRE |

I just started reading this thread this spring, and I thought it was just a great idea and that it would be a lot of fun because I love an excuse to ride. But it seems like a lot of these missions are just in town and have complicated markers. I like to ride, but get me outta town! |

Socoken, you can always ride to the next town and do the challenge! |

The markers can get kinda crazy sometimes, but it does make it more interesting, but i do think that the off the wall request tend to slow this game down a lot. I think if the destination is hard, then either no marker, or glove on the seat kinda deal. If the destination is easy, like to Taco Bell, then maybe it can be out there a little bit. After all, its just to show its not an old picture. Also, leave a 3rd party out of it because as we talked about early in this thread, nobody really wants to be hassled, nor do i even want to have to ask. Be nice if we can get this game back to at least one challenge a day! |

Sorry I haven't been here for a while. It's been raining and I've been lazy. I see that it has defaulted to me, and since I like socokens thinking, how about your bike if front of a "the state of ______ welcomes you" sign. I know this may be harder for some to accomplish depending on location to your nearest neighbor, but I'm drawing a blank otherwise. I also think this one might have been done before, but it gets people out riding right? I don't think it needs to be said, but a state other than the one in which you reside. Don't know if that was obvious or not. (Message edited by beugs on April 26, 2011) |

Like this!
Sorry, very old pic, I've got hours to ride from here in straight lines to any state lines. If I get a chance this weekend, maybe I'll zip over to Wendover, NV for a photo op. |

Finally. I have a sign about 5 min from the house but figured that was just to easy. So i made an hour round trip for this picture. I was going to make a nice ride out of it till i realized i was riding dirty(forgot my wallet) Wanna see another beach pic since its about that time again. So, your bike next to your favorite beach. Helmet on your bike. |

got a new mesh jacket for 30 bucks off craigslist today, so i had to take it out for a ride and see how it worked, so a friend and i went for a spin out to tybee island, not a real good shot of the beach, but that was as close as i could get the bike. let me know if it counts.

Hey my first post up to this thread! We don't have any seafood only restaurants in town so I hope this counts. This place does the best job on seafood and fresh water fish and is a favourite eatery of ours.

better resolution
If this is acceptable, your next challenge - your bike with a novelty sized musical instrument that is on display in a public place. The instrument does not have to be functional, just huge. (Message edited by xodot on May 09, 2011) |

I set out saturday to do the beach challenge and I got A pic. Then my ADD kicked in and I just kept riding.
Then I went to the Indianhead M/C hillclimb on sunday so I'm a couple days late.
