We did this on another bike forum and it was fun. The intent is to get out and ride to complete the challenge before someone else does. All you need to do is take a picture of your bike with the challenge item in the background.

The rules here are simple. Be sure to note them before creating the next challenge for the rest of us.

1 - Has to be YOUR motorcycle.
2 - Picture has to be taken after challenge is made.
3 - Challenge is good for 2 weeks, if it is not met, the previous picture poster picks a new challenge.
4 - Nothing illegal to be challenged.
5 - Keep comments to a minimum, if you comment, post the current challenge after your comment. In Bold Italics
6 - No repeat challenges.
7 - All challenges must be of your bike and a landmark, something most people can ride to or find in their area.
8 - No other bikes can be used in a challenge, ie. your bike next to a Ducati. Some exceptions allowed, ie. you bike next to a bike cop.
9 - All challenges can be removed by moderators. At which point the postee of the challenge will be asked to change his current challenge. After being asked once and there is no change or challenger posts another crapy challenge then the prior challenge winner will pick a new one.

Examples - "Your motorcycle in a garage", "Your motorcycle crossing a river", "Your motorcycle with no engine", "Your motorcycle next to a firetruck" etc. Doesn't need to be a fancy picture, cell phones, whatever works.

Thanks guys. Remember, this thread is supposed to get guys to WANT to go ride right away and beat your friend to the picture challenge, be creative, but have limits. Thanks.

First Challenge:

Your bike in front of a sporting goods store.

Yes because a picture of the Space Shuttle in the snow would be WAY to hard.
Lets go back to getting a picture of your bike near snow, or shaved ice. Here is a picture of my bike from March of this year, but can any one get a more recent one?

As the Originator of this challenge this picture doesn't count. If you refer to the 1st post, the picture must be taken after the challenge is made. Otherwise, most of us would be able to win multiple challenges with out leaving our LayZ boys....

Current Challenge: Your Bike with Snow

Hope someone is far enough north or this thread is dead for a month.

Yeah, I think that one put the brakes on this thread for awhile

If after 2 weeks no one gets a picture with snow, the previous winner picks a new challenge.

ETA: If no-one gets this one by the end of the day.... I have an Idea...[insert evil laugh here]

The hardest part about getting this picture was going through my stack of CDs to find it....

Don't give me that! You just took a pic of a photocopied CD cover stuck on your bike to pull off the snow thing! How far did ya have to ride to get that one? :wink:

I had to ride 77 miles home from work... in the rain, then go into the crawl space above the garage to dig through my old CDs to find it. Then I had to scan and enlarge the pic before printing.... I tried to take the picture with just the CD case but the reflection off the plastic cover washed the picture out and it was way too small to tell what it was....

Some one needs to get over to Shankweiler's or Becky's.

Becky's back in the 80's was an education.

[Emphasis mine] I remember those days... are you from the LV?

Grew up on a farm in Plainfield Twp. near Belfast.

For everyone else, Becky's was a porno drive in for time, but no longer.

I know exactly where that is... I grew up in Easton/Wilson but spent some time in the Nazareth/Bangor/Pen Argyl school districts.

I drive through there every day on my way to work...

Technically, this "challenge" was already dealt with by #11 on the list. Since no one has raised an objection, I submit the home of the University of Alabama Crimson Tide:

2011 Football National Champions.

For the next "challenge", I shall test your powers of persuasion:

Your bike in front of a crowd of at least 10 people, all giving a "thumbs up" sign.
And no, they can't be your buddies. A random crowd. I rely on your honor in that regard.

I might be able to get this tomorrow (2/3/2012) if there are enough people at the tattoo shop....

Was almost getting it today but only 7 people in the office today

There were more than 10 people at the tattoo shop when I got there. I was running late to my appointment, so I thought I would get them when I left... but by the time I was done, they were gone.

My 2000 Buell Cyclone with a 2012 Corvette. I hope this will suffice. I no longer work for a Chevy Dealer so I doubt I could convince them to let me ride my bike into the show room for this challenge.

Note: If this is sufficient, I will post the next challenge shortly.

Done!

Your bike in a Patriot Guard Mission (a mission after the date of this post!!)

I think you may want to reconsider your challenge. The challenge has to be available to almost anyone and has a time limit of 2 weeks. The rules:

The rules here are simple. Be sure to note them before creating the next challenge for the rest of us.

1 - Has to be YOUR motorcycle.
2 - Picture has to be taken after challenge is made.
3 - Challenge is good for 2 weeks, if it is not met, the previous picture poster picks a new challenge.
4 - Nothing illegal to be challenged.
5 - Keep comments to a minimum, if you comment, post the current challenge after your comment. In Bold Italics
6 - No repeat challenges.
7 - All challenges must be of you bike and a landmark, something most people can ride to or find in their area. 8 - No other bikes can be used in a challenge, ie. your bike next to a Ducati. Some exceptions allowed, ie. you bike next to a bike cop.
9 - All challenges can be removed by me. At which point the postee of the challenge will be asked to change his current challenge. After being asked once and there is no change or challenger posts another crapy challenge then the prior challenge winner will pick a new one.

Examples - "Your motorcycle in a garage", "Your motorcycle crossing a river", "Your motorcycle with no engine", "Your motorcycle next to a firetruck" etc. Doesn't need to be a fancy picture, cell phones, whatever works.

Thanks guys. Remember, this thread is supposed to get guys to WANT to go ride right away and beat your friend to the picture challenge, be creative, but have limits. Thanks.

See rule # 7.

1) The Patriot Guard are not active everywhere in the world. This forum is pretty much world wide. Thus eliminating a portion of our friends from across the pond.

2) If the Patriot Guard were world wide, their events are few and far between in most areas. (An Army buddy of mine rides 3 hours just to link up with his chapter)

While I share and admire your patriotism, as the originator of this thread IAW rule # 9, I respectfully request you come up with a new challenge.
