    Lets see what kind of short circuited signage you can find.

      This should be a easy one for me to find. Living in the Rust Belt, Youngstown Ohio USA, there's a lot of blight to be found.

      The tag of the multi color house. I could have got that one easy, but I was afraid to stop and take the picture in fear of getting shot at!!

        Riding in the city is always a treat...here's a computerized sign that I'm not sure was fully functional. If acceptable we'll move on to another city tag item....

        Next tag is graffiti as seen on dumpster....or a foliage season tree turning from green to a bright color.

          Sorry Lurch, while that sign does appear to have some digital malfunction, the letters are still lighted. Surely burnt out neon letters aren't a rarity these days. I gotta say close but try again.

            "short circuited signage" is what you asked for?? I guess I didn't read the fine print below pic...."lighted sign with letters out". Now don't get too fussy! We don't have many people playing the game as it is.

              We actually dont have a whole lot of neon signs left in NJ, most being replaced by the translucent backlighted plastic type. When I drove cross county years ago, I was surprised to see so much neon signage still in use in small town USA. Neon signs are cool.

              This one is a gem though, but not tag eligible, unless I go back. I took it a month plus ago.

                Mmmmm, tasty breakfast this morning.....


                I totally thought I had deleted that short circuit bit before it posted. Going back and forth from my phone to the desktop has it's disadvantages. Sometimes I'll type part of a post on one device, then switch over using the auto saved text and continue the post. No trickery or fussyness intended, please carry on with your tag.

                  That's a great shot, man. I thought about using a sign that says something unintended because letters are out, but I didn't want to be confusing. So much for that.......

                      I had a great sunrise ride up and around the mountain today and came a crossed both of Lurch's tag options. Graffiti on the cement barrier and trees turning. Boy, what a colorful season and awesome morning to ride!

                        If that's acceptable, how about for the new tag, A Library or Bar and Grille, or Giant Books

                                Next tag is an old white church or some building with a weather vane on top.
