Seeing as we are already three months into this year, it seems like we all need to make an extra effort.
Last year's thread only made it 8 pages, hopefully we can get some more participation.
Might as well start it off with the last 2021 post: Your bike and a clock tower

Merry Christmas! Next up, your bike with a clock tower (or a stationary time keeping device of some sort) have a Happy New Year!

Hope to play this year.  I bought a mid 2000s Monster a year and a half ago and have only ridden it twice.  It really adds to garage decor though.

(I dirt ride a couple of times a month though.)

OP of 2019, 2020, 2021… forgot to get it going this year. Thanks my fellow rider up North! Sold my 09 650 VStrom and just found this 2018 with 1450 miles. I added all the goodies this week.

Here’s your clock tower, 45 miles south of home, 55 deg f today!

If I may suggest…how about something a little “easier” to pick?  In my area I can only think of a couple clock towers and getting the bike and clock tower in the same picture would be interesting to say the least.  What about numbers, farmhouses, barns, covered bridges, gun shops, etc.?  For numbers you would start at “1” and go from there can be house numbers, route numbers…anything that has the next number.  Again, just a suggestion.

This is machinery on a farm, so it counts right?

If that one counts; your bike next to a railroad crossing.

It feels outstanding right now. 71° and sunny with a slight breeze. Just rode around one of the lakes nearby on a road I’ve never been on. Lots of curves and lots of fun at 30-40mph on the dual sport.

The red line was more or less my route this morning. Couldn’t be too precise on my phone but it’s close.

I "think" we may be done with snow for this spring finally. It hit 61 degrees yesterday but of course with that came the 40 mph + winds. It's about time to dig the bike out of the barn.

Dang it!  I'm late!  To make it worse, I stopped at a 'unique gas station in my area' to take this pic of my bike with cows in the background.  (Gotta zoom in--they're along the treeline)

The gas station is 'old South'.....ratty old building with peeling paint, sagging roof, old fashioned analog pumps, and the BEST cold cut sammiches.....I'm not even sure where it is--I was out exploring my new area.

You beat me to uploading by 15 minutes yesterday! I should be able to get your target tomorrow if the weather holds out. Nice bike!

Edit: Weather didn't hold out. Severe thunderstorms for the next couple days. Should be clear by Friday if nobody else gets the target.

Here's a pic for the thread.

There's only one other Springer Softail in the area that I've seen--and I've been looking.  Happens to be a family friend, so I'll have to go see if Greg is out & about tomorrow.
