Riding Game

[Eli69]

it's kind of windy up there being right by the lake. a few years ago somebody got out of their car up there during a storm and got blown over the edge. splattah! anybody who drives in the city has at least one horror story about the skyway.

tag, yer it....

[Raid3n]

i got this one in the bag, it's on my way home, haha.

I drove on an abominable road like that

once when I was driving school/tour bus part time in North Chicago, and one other time going to Michigan, before I remembered other, less toll-costly ways of getting past the windy city.
We don't have any of those up here in my neck of the woods, so I'll be waiting for the next tag.

opps.
a couple days late with the lighthouse photo


No elevated highways around here, although is one under construction.

elevated highway/bridge....

[lurch12_2000]

running out of ideas(and gas)....next tag is a gas pump...go out and fill up and take a ride and look for a more interesting tag!

[DanTheMan]

OK, here's the gas pumps ( I didn't need gas) it's expensive at this little place anyway.



And here's the next tag, a boat launching ramp, this one is going into the Pine River, for which my town and zip code is from (but Pine River, MN actually resides on the shores of Norway Brook, go figure).



Lurch, I have a request for you. Could you size down your picts to 580-600 x whatever Photobucket or your hosting program picks out? It makes the thread much easier to load when the pictures aren't so huge.
Thanx!

BTW, is that you're 850GL under all that hardware? Is the trunk tilting back some? Did you swap the gas tank from a G?

I did change settings from large to medium awhile ago but I will try to down size the pics to small (640x480) next time, but I thought bigger pics make for more detail.
My cell phone pics are not coming out as good for quality but that usually is all I have when out riding.

I like the larger pic's myself.
Please keep them that size.

Actually, that is my 850GL, and the trunk tilts back a bit because the rack I have under it is the original Suzuki or dealer installed aftermarket rack with the backrest. I liked the lower mounted rack, and with all the morphing that I've done to the bike it got a slight downward tilt, and I left it like that. The gas tank is one I bought from a GSR member that had a bunch of tanks for sale (can't remember his screen name at the moment), and it's actually from a 650 according to Tkent. Due to the slightly shorter L frame, it would've been too much work to put the G tank on it. I gained a gallon with this one anyway.
thanks

Didn't think I'd get a shot at another tag before the salt goes down, but...

A boat launch...


And the next tag...a Nature Center...


However...I will take a giant leaf sign as an alternative....

That Triumph looks too clean....needs some salt and dirt on it! Or do you have a winter beater bike?

Nope...once the salt hits the roads, all three bikes and the Miata are done until spring...
The CTS is my winter beater....

Short Hills Conservation Area...

Niagara Falls...how about a waterfall[which i know has been done] or a tourist attraction.
My first time playing on probably the last ride of the year. I hope these both meet the rules.
