    The Riding Game!

    As it happens, I won't be able to participate for a while as I was involved in an accident yesterday. I was gliding past queued traffic at approx 15-20mph, and got hit from my right by a car trying to make a u-turn in a double-yellow lane yesterday. Both of us are fine, though I did a flip...

    The Riding Game!

    I give you... a proper theater! Saw the challenge last night but it was too dark outside to go for a ride. Went out after work today, had to *cough* drive up a disabled entrance to get the second picture, then reverse back down it, but it was worth it. And I might have gone to see the play...

    The Riding Game!

    Had a couple of incredibly nice days lately, so went out and rode for almost 10 hours in total over three days. Also put up my old Suzuki for sale, and so needed to wash both of them. Bonus points for washing not one but two bikes? Next challenge: Picture of your bike with an actual horse...

    The Riding Game!

    Good one! And there's no way I'm putting a sheeps head on my bike. *chuckles* Maybe I can find some lutefisk, though. If you haven't had it, don't; it's basically fish that's been soaked in lye for a good long while which is then hung out to dry. Aweful stuff. Current challenge: "Your bike...

    The Riding Game!

    No reason why it shouldn't count to my mind. Unless someone grabs the next challenge tonight, it's off to a McD drive through tomorrow! Current challenge: "your bike with a Cheeseburger on it"

    The Riding Game!

    I'm BACK, baby! Norway has finally thawed up enough for riding season to begin, and while I don't have my parents in the picture below I just wanted to post it anyway. Glad to see the thread has been started. First ride of the season, 8C / 46F temperatures, cloudy weather blocking most of the...

    The Riding Game!

    I just cleaned, detailed, and parked both bikes in a friends garage for the winter, so I'm out until spring. Looking forward to picking this up once Norway thaws up again. Thanks for all the good times so far, folks. Martin

    DO EEEEET! :D But yes, I can honestly say that in my opinion you would be the winner of the game, Steve-O style...

    The Riding Game!

    Sweet, a challenge I can actually participate in. There were no pink fire trucks or pumpkin patches around where I live, and movie posters are generally indoors at the local theaters. Farm equipment, however, we've got plenty of! Found this beauty with a full load of what's locally known as...

    The Riding Game!

    Went to three towns and couldn't spot a single vehicle that was pink, not even a frakkin' bicycle. Took three pictures of the various firehouses, though, and it seems Norway has decided to go yellow for the firetrucks. Good challenge; good luck to everyone else. Current Challenge: Your...

    The Riding Game!

    Went for a three hour long ride today, approximately 175km. Stopped to get some refreshments at a gas station, and decided to check the challenge of the day. Lo and behold, something I can do! Refuel, toss down the rest of the refreshments, and hightail it to the nearest Vinmonopolet, which...

    The Riding Game!

    Nicely done, GTPAddict; rocking out, FAZtER style! And Humperdinkel, what can I say. Didgeridoo on an FZ6? The Madness, the Madness! *chuckles* Good one, though. As for the next challenge, "Your bike near a religious temple (not a plain church)" This is going to be a tough one for me...

    The Riding Game!

    Went out this morning, had a pretty cool (or so I think anyway) monument in mind. Near where I live, at a place called Hafrsfjord, three enormous bronze swords stand monument to the "Battle of Hafrsfjord" in the year 872, when Harald Hårfagre (Fairheaded Harald) united Norway into one...

    The Riding Game!

    Dammit! Oh well, if I get the goahead from the shopping mall, I'm doing that one anyways :p Next challenge: You bike in front of a famous landmark or attraction

    The Riding Game!

    *chuckles* Just sent an e-mail to the largest mall in town, (Kvadrat), or Square in English, with a request to bring my bike inside to take a photo of it, as I don't think we have any outdoor ice cream stands around here. Eagerly awaiting their reply, though I'll probably not hear back from them...

    The Riding Game!

    This one is for someone else. Rode all over town trying to find a bait/tackle shop, but couldn't find any. Guess there are no fishers in town, despite living on the coast. Oh well, got to ride around in great weather, so the spirit of the challenge was upheld. Victory!

    The Riding Game!

    *chuckles* What the hell is that rusty thing in the garage? You really neglect your cage that bad in order to pamper the bike? :D Next Challenge: Your bike in front of a tackle/bait shop

    The Riding Game!

    Got the picture of my bike, YES, MY OWN BIKE, not that crummy FZ1 the shop lent me after breaking my poor baby's fuel tank and rear frame! Also pictured are some added shiny bitz (i.e. lower cowl fairing, main stand, and roller protectors), and some additional not-so-visible tweaks such as...

    Terra Nova - Motorcycle Gear as costumes

    Anyone catch the new show Terra Nova yesterday? Looks like they're using the Dainese Wave Pro jacket to simulate chest and back armour for some troops in the show. Looks pretty good, too! Never really thought about it, but torso/shoulder/arm armour looks rather imposing if you don't wear...

    The Riding Game!

    That is fantastic, bd43, excellent work. Is that shot with a more advanced camera than say, a smartphone one? Next challenge: Your bike in front of a Grocery store (Walmart does NOT count!)
