That's a perfect "2 up" pic
Time for someone else to head to the Gym for a pic

I haven't been to the gym in years... This is actually the closest I've been in a long time. I wonder how many calories I burned through osmosis by being this close? http://chinariders.net/attachment.ph...1&d=1536434698
Next challenge is actually three parts. 1st, a picture of what you like best about your bike. 2nd, a picture of what you like least about your bike. Finally, a picture of your favorite sticker/mod/farkle/or battle scar that tells a story.

I pretty much like everything about the bike.....
Don't like that it has steel wheels, would prefer they were aluminum Favorite Farkle...the Madstad Windshield system.. For the next challenge......your bike on/near a bridge, extra points for an old steel bridge

There's an old-style railroad trestle on my way to my barber's shop. Stopped and took a quick picture on my way to get a haircut... Okay, Okay, I went and got my haircut just so I could get this picture...
http://chinariders.net/attachment.ph...1&d=1537312922 Next challenge: Your bike out in front of a motorcycle shop in your town. Bonus points for how close you get to their display bikes!

"...a motorcycle shop in your town."
That counts me out!

There's gotta be somewhere that sells motorcycles out there. If not, I'd say that's an excuse to go for a ride!

I think I'm going to take this one - I've got a few motorcycle shops nearby that I can swing.
This picture is way late, so obviously not counting it towards anything - but took this earlier this morning as I had said I would earlier in the thread. Was supposed to be of our anklebiters 'natural environment' - of all the things, I thought "playground". Enjoy! |

Got the picture!
The place closed right as I got there (three minutes to 5) so all the display bikes were already put away...so I drove onto the sidewalk and got as close to the window as I dared. Hope this counts! New challenge - your bike next to an old antique car. Bonus points if the car is rusting out and being overtaken by weeds/plants! [IMG][/IMG] |

Talk about a beautiful classic car though!
Railroad tracks...lots of those where I'm at. Gonna see if I can get a good picture on Gutsy (white bike is nicknamed 'Balla' and the red one is 'Gutsy' - might have to make a thread or post about that one) Do I get bonus points if there is a train or some train cars in the picture? :P The weather is getting less than ideal though. I feel like my pictures are going to come to an abrupt halt rather quickly here. Hopefully I have about a month more of riding. Might sneak a picture in after it snows just because I can. |

Tried to get one crossing the tracks but I don't think it's the right time of day for that. Might try to shoot one down at the depot a little later when trains aren't constantly coming in and out, and there aren't as many people who would be bothered by my presence.
But for now: Click the picture to see it in all its crispy glory! For the next challenge, lets see some of those beautiful fall colors! Challenge is to take a picture of changing tree colors or of a pumpkin farm. Extra points for being offroad. Super major points if you can either capture both while being offroad or being in the middle of the pumpkin patch (but be safe and don't get charged with a ticket ) |
