I'm already active in a photo tag game on ADVRider and find that it does prompt me to take rides I wouldn't otherwise. I'm in.

Big airport, Big Jets, you get the idea.

That's the criteria? Commercial flights with big jets? Akron-Canton airport (CAK) meets those criteria. Right, Mike?

Fighting car/bus/van traffic to find a spot to park the bike and take a picture at CLE might be hazardous to my health. Riding onto and through the airport property? That's not a terrible challenge. Parking next to the sign? I'm having second thoughts.

So, what's the next challenge?

 

[RogerC60]

Did that rule come into play partway through the game? When I read the first few posts on this thread I don't see that. I see a pic that meets the current challenge with a comment giving the next challenge.

Well I guess I should have interrupted my 100 mile ride today to check this thread. Then I would have known I could post my picture of my bike parked in front of Chase bank in a handicapped spot. And yes, UK, I am whining.

I found a couple I could ride to today on my way home from work (yeah, taking the LONG way around).

My bike at a steel grate bridge:

I'll wait for Mike to approve this before I give the next challenge.

 

[RogerC60]

Next challenge: your bike at an animal shelter/rescue.

 

[RogerC60]

Nice. You're up, Mike.

 

[RogerC60]

BUT ( small hint..) I purposely worded the challenge the way I did to allow some flexibility here, and this should allow just about everyone to find a statue that fits the challenge somewhere near by.

Ahhhhhh. Clever.

 

[RogerC60]

Yeah, these used to be pretty common but lately they've gone by the wayside (pun intended). Still lots of them along the interstate highways.

But I know of a rest stop along a state highway about an hour's ride from my house, and the sun is shining and I'm working from home today ?

 

[RogerC60]

My bike at a "roadside rest" as they used to be called.

Here's a shot without the required picnic table in the background, but shows the Ohio DOT signage, etc. Also some very picturesque scenery in the background.

I believe this is the only rest area in Ohio that is not along a divided limited access or controlled access highway. This one is on Ohio Route 39 just west of Walnut Creek (and right in front of a church).

 

[RogerC60]

Next challenge: your bike with an abandoned or derelict building in the background. And if it has a for sale sign on it, it's not abandoned or derelict.

 

[RogerC60]

My bike parked in front of my house.
I've been called a derelict.
Judges?

No.

 

[RogerC60]

bpe, I'll give you the Challenger's Award for creativity!

 

[RogerC60]

Those are three pretty sad looking buildings. Maybe they aren't really abandoned, but that barn ought to be.

Challenge met. Skant153, you're up.

 

[RogerC60]

So somebody gets A and that meets the challenge, which means the challenge is then to get B? And the person who gets A can also get B and then C, but not D?

 

[RogerC60]

Dang, it just started raining. And my driveway is about 1.5 miles away from the Akron city limit sign...

 

[RogerC60]

I would not be opposed to allowing videos. If I'm wearing my GoPro on my helmet it's pretty easy to get my bike in the shot and then turn my head to capture whatever is the challenge.
