    Hmm. So I am not seeing double. I will be joining the game shortly, now that you have everything ironed out. Not much of a skyline in Indy, unfortunately...

      Not sure, would this be considered a skyline?

        Wow probably should have checked the links. Lets Try this again then.

        Here is my school.



        And now the picture of the Skyline





        Sorry about the poor first upload. I was trying to get it done before my class started and was having trouble properly uploading them.

          Hmmm... Normally a skyline is a city against a sky. So that you can see the edges of the tall buildings clearly. I don't want to be a smart a$$ (after my amateur blunder at least lol) but I think the picture needs to be a proper Skyline. Get a picture of Denver (I think) from away / ground level looking towards it. The Colorado sky is immense shouldnt be too hard to get. Just get off the mountains

            Yeah, my bike pretty much heads for the hills every time it is fired up.
            Heading into the city probably isn't going to happen.

              Was getting ready to post up my pics but to late, I might save my next tag and grab a skyline shot during lunch.

                Same here - I'll have to wait for the next tag though. Not much of a skyline when downtown Lexington might have 3 buildings over 20 stories...

                  Yea, some are easier for others... I got downtown Boston about 10 minutes from my office, just need to find a good photo spot for the skyline.

                    Just be creative, that's part of the fun.
                    He didn't say BIG CITY skyline...just a skyline...

                    Could be a couple of grain elevators...or Mount Rushmore...or ????

                      Ok took a ride in, the best skyline view of Boston is from the harbor but I settled for across the Charles from Cambridge. Right next to MIT so could have covered the college just as easy.




                      sorry for the sun glare, got Hancock tower and Prudential at least.

                      Next tag is an outdoor concert venue:

                        My GS is only a 450, and sometimes a guy needs a little more Powa; so I rode my VF1000F today (do forgive me?).


                        Outdoor concert venue:



                        Ozzy Osbourne played in that white tent thing last year.

                        New one:

                              I see you've got your "ducks in a row"------ look at the ducks (it's hard to tell if they are ducks so for this purpose they're ducks) in the grass between the car and the bikes.

                                LoLoLoL That may be the best control tower in town, but there's actually a pretty neat 'skyline'.
