 It's fun putting on all of your gear for an Internet Joke once, but after that it's just a chore.

People probably aren't doing it because it's already been done and it isn't really in spirit of a riding game.

I'm invoking my OP privileges NEW CHALLENGE:  Show us where you bought your bikeTake us back to the dealership, storage unit, barn, or prove your gooniness by taking a picture in some poor saps driveway and explain to them that you bought their bike back in the day and you're doing this for the internet. Bonus points if you can take it one step further and show us where your bike was actually made. Beve Stuscemi fucked around with this message at 05:11 on Oct 5, 2012 |

If I bought my bike from some guy who's in the Coast Guard and he moved, would I have to find the guy or just go to his old house?

My Spirit Otter posted:a picture of your bike near fishing boats  Point Loma area of San Diego. I should have taken pictures of all the fish on the ground by the open air market but there wasn't a good place to get off my bike. Picture of your bike at a Humane Society (for animals). The new Humane Society in San Diego is beautiful. Go to your local Humane Society. Find a pet. Save a life. Or at least take a picture of your bike.

Old photos, especially when they aren't yours and don't involve riding, don't count   However, I'm impressed by Stugazi's speed to find some fishing boats, so let's keep their challenge. Stugazi posted:

 The RSPCA is the UK version. Even though I live close to this place it took me an hour of riding on twisty back roads to find it, so no problem there! Your bike with a lot of other bikesEdit - Sorry about the hugeness, I posted from my phone and it got resized to the screen automatically. And by 'a lot' of bikes, I mean 50+ and preferably some sort of event rather than just in a car park.. grunthaas fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Oct 14, 2012 |

New bike, so any excuse to get out.. Does this count? http://www.mansellraceway.com/ Nigel Mansells karting track! Its an active place, there was a meet on there today but the website is pretty old and the links to the bio pages are very skimpy. Your bike somewhere fitting for Halloween

The monster with a cup of starbucks would've been perfect for this game, but the game's stalled out so this'll have to do. My running TS400 with a cup of coffee. Since it seems appropriate, Your bike kicking fall/winter's rear end!Rain, sub-50's thermometer in the background, show your bike in conditions the garage queens dare not go. And if no one does that after a week, your bike packed away for the season

Here is my drz in its cold-rear end weather gear, in some cold-rear end weather, next to cold-rear end Lake Michigan. I didn't have a thermometer handy, but it was mid 30's all day. I still want to see your poor bike all tucked away for winter

What is this obsession with this thread and wanting to see some poor bike tucked away for winter? That's like asking to see a puppy with its loving legs cut off. It's just heart-breaking.
