Riding Game

[Allie]

Omg if this lasts until Friday I know where there are some in the middle of some very scenic riding. It won't last though but that's okay.

so we are on blimp or a spring?

I am good with either blimp/zeppelin or spring. Blimp was seeming a bit tough so I thought perhaps a spring would be more accessible for the majority of people.

Here is the spring, see pipe in background. Artesian well runs all year long.
Bike is the '79 HD iron head sportster I am building with my son. Almost road worthy, needs a few gaskets and a functioning exhaust.

Next tag: Your bike and a Hay baler. Doesn't matter what kind or brand, new or old, on a farm or implement dealer lot. Should be a few of these across the country.

Here's your old school baler under that tarp, but with bale still in for the time being. I wasn't about to trespass to pull the tarp.

Something stupid....colorful lawn chair array. At least 3 chairs and 3 colors! No trespassing on your neighbor's yard either!

Definately an old school one. Don't see too many more balers with their own power unit around anymore, except for the amish communities. Probably a wisconsin engine under the washtub on the baler. We've got a similar Massey 165, just not as rough.

This is kind of a cool tag. First thought, oh man where am I ever going to find THAT? Second thought, but there almost HAS to be something like that SOMEWHERE. It's the kind of tag that will get you to just ride... and ride! Too bad I ain't getting on the bike again 'till it's a little cooler...

December, perhaps? Do the human swamp cooler thing and ride!

If the current tag holds, I'll have it by tomorrow morning. Actually stopped tonight, got off the bike and snapped the photo with my cell phone. Forgot to send it to the "save to pics" option and ended up with a black screen.

I'll have it by 9:00am tomorrow. Right in town and I ride by their place, every night on the way home from work.

Promise. EVEN the same colors.... ray:

AND...I have an additional photo for MY first shot at he game.

To be continued...

Soaking jackets/shirts/hankies is great for hot weather riding, but most of my riding is to work, not really ideal for that. Then again in 98 degree heat I'm such a sloth I hardly feel like even walking out to the bike.

You'll do fine Allie. We have that weather here in CO right now (upper 90s but a tad dry - thunderstorms in the evenings) and my jacket and pants are both black (reflective vest is yellow now). I'm fine as long as I'm moving as the wind helps but yea, once I stop I can feel it. I peeled off my jacket at lunch and felt really wet and disgusting but what can you do?

 

[wacky941]

Here in Texas it's been in the triple digits and I still ride with all the gear, must admit I'm soaking wet when I get home though.

Im with ya girl. I cherish the 15 min of AC in my truck back and forth to work. Our heat index was like 117 yesterday .

The thing about the wind, anywhere around body temperature and it's not really helping much. It will help evaporate moisture but you're not getting any direct cooling from it. Anything above body temp and you may as well be riding in a hair dryer.

OK, 2 colors and 2 chairs??? ...preferably muave and teal !!

We're at 98? right now with a HI of 110?...
But what really makes it special is we lost 2 out of our 4 A/C units at work...
Our equipment makes a lot of heat and the repair guys won't get here until tomorrow...
I've got 10 unhappy women working for me right now....
And I'll have 8 more when the night crew gets in...

 

[lurch12_2000]

The heat must have everyone restricted to their a/c cars and offices?

Alright, 1 colorful lawn chair??? And you can move it into the shade if you'd like!
