Historical tidbit:



If accepted, how about your bike and a theatre marquee?

Way cool!
I love the challenge being met with 24 hours - that's an excellent response, and I really like the extra shot with context. When I put a shot into BOTM I always try to add some informative description.
so lets see some more members having a go at this one: Your bike and a Theatre Marquee

I agree with you agf; it's more fun to get a description and/or context with a picture. The goal is to inspire riding, and to see some unique sights along the way that we might otherwise overlook.

*Bump*

I know the weather here in north Texas is absolutely beautiful today! Is there really nobody out riding? Let's get this game back in full swing!

Current challenge is your bike and a theatre marquee.

Oh this is so cool! Totally going to try to jump into this game once the freakish weather around here levels out enough to ride (had the bike out Feb 3rd, was like 6C and clear roads. This weekend has been dipping down to -12C and massive ice storm, snowed last week too, lol).

Current challenge is your bike and a theatre marquee.

Your bike and a Theatre Marquee

Adee, sorry not quite sure what a theatre Marquee is. Do you mean a theatre or a marque (like they use in the circus), we never have a theatre in a Marque over here.

Hi Martin, not actually my challenge But I'm thinking maybe a theatre forecourt or where a thetare has alll the playbills displayed...maybe the OP can better explain it

 

[brle7817]

I apologize for the confusion; it would be called a marquee here in my neck of the woods. I am referring to the board where the theatre would display the shows and/or times.

Here is an example.



In this case, a similar display board for a movie theatre is acceptable as well.

Thanks for the explaination, we don't have anything like that here, it used to be this way back in the 60's/70's but if this challenge is still standing at the end of 2 weeks I'll take a picture in front of our modern, glass fronted theatre. So come on guys get your skates on :thumbup:

local "County Theater" - is this acceptable as a marquee? It's not quite as flashy as the example, but - I waited around until dusk and they turned the lights on.





If accepted - what if my challenge has already been done? I haven't read through all 165 pages of this thread (!), but... here goes:

Your bike next an old fire truck. Extra points if you are on the fire truck.

This game has been running for a looooong time and its hard to think up a fresh untried challenge, but in the 5 years I've played I havnt seen a challenge come up twice, every new forum member can have a go and we'll prob still not see an old one resurface.
There is a list of the challenges early in this thread, If I get a chance I'll find the post # and re-fresh all our memories

 

[agf]

The first 238 challenges are listed in post #1 and post #2 in this thread, not sure who the moderator is for this one or if anyone can edit to include the latest challenges.

those first posts a good spot to check for inspiration and variation on an already used theme, in my book anyway, is alright. I just love that folks are still interested in playing.

Current challenge:
Your bike and an old firetruck

 

[gnyce]

This one has been unchalleneged for awhile. Weather here/for me has been poor for riding (we had _snow_ yesterday). If no one can find an old fire truck after today... what do we think about bumping it down to _any_ fire truck, old or new?

Current Challenge - your bike and an old fire truck.

 

[Naked Stella]

I can do this one... Only problem is I won't be home till the beginning of May... Sorry

 

[brle7817]

I can run out to Roanoake and nab it this week. Nascar was in town this weekend so traffic out there was a nightmare.

Wasn't easy - you have to look through the middle-window over the right-front tire of the fire truck... that's my bike. Reflection was too bad to take it the other way. Including a 2nd with more modern ones.





New/Current Challenge - your bike and you - or someone - sitting on it while eating an ice cream cone. Surely this one won't be too hard.

Is the game still on?

It's just fun! Whether or not the challenge has been done before, doesn't matter, it's about getting out there and riding! Yippee! :Sport:

But, one thing would be helpful....repeating current challenge in every new reply, it's easier to find the latest..........
