Best shot I could get of the damn dam. It does have hydro but couldn't get a good angle. If it is acceptable next I would pick anything "giant" related as in bigger than average size. Giant chair, ball of yarn, statue, etc...Attached File |

In anticipation of doing one of these I started a list of what had already been done. Quite a list so far. The photo in the OP was a covered bridge Boat ramp Railroad crossing Competitive motor sports facility (drag strip, race track, mx track, etc) Horse, horse farm, horse track, horse boarding, etc Bike with a snowplow. There MUST be snow in the frame *** Was never done How about a town's sign showing a population of less than 50 250? *** Was never done Your bike next to any sign. Bakery On a ferry Static military display Race track or drag strip State or National Park sign Your bike and a large aircraft Let's see a machine shop. lathes, mills, stuff like that. Dont have to see the machines, the sign on the wall etc is enough. An observatory, or if because Covid, the entrance to an observatory A statue of some kind Oldest building you can find that is still being used. Must be at least 100 years old or older. A body of water Wild flowers Phallic symbol *** was done but not really a challenge A giant tree A road sign (directional, advertising, exit), mile marker, or something posted that has "87" in it. It doesn't have to be 87 exactly, just has to contain "87" Your bike in front of cows your bike and a cactus dive bar/ restaurant microbrewery motorcycle dealer blue mail box (USPS drop/collection box) Lumber mill/factory/Sawmill/logging site A tiny, small town government building, such as a really small post office, city hall, etc. Your bike and a flowering tree Your bike and sheep A distillery something prehistoric your bike under a bridge. Extra credit if it's under a bridge and there's a 2nd bridge in the picture. a waterfall your bike in front of an old-time gun shop a windmill the next target is a dam. Bonus points if you can get a hydropower plant in the photo too. anything "giant" related as in bigger than average size. Giant chair, ball of yarn, statue, etc... Your bike in front of your favorite donut shop Favorite pizza place Your bike and a water tower Your bike at a historic fort |

Totally NOT my thread but If i understand the nature of it- i think that there is no rule against repeats. Just have to take a new/different photo every time. More an excuse to get out and ride. Maybe the OP can chime in for clarity. @ORARGB P.S. Guzzi has been down for a bit, should be up and running this week. |
Hell on miniature trout and short round women.

I was just making a list so that I would be able to come up with something different. No rule that I know of for repeats. |

Rock on, Brothers! |

Can we do two targets, one obscure and one more obtainable ? I'm just going to do it anyway because I already asked the question lol Seriously, I think some flatlanders would like to see a pic of someone's bike at an elevation sign above 10k ft, but there are only a few places in the US where that could be done. |

The closest I could get. Attached File Next up, you bike and a Cactus. As quoted in my post on Memorial Day. A Veterans Memorial, or Memorial Cemetery is also an acceptable target. |
