I think the point is Z3n is a space cowboy on the edge of a frontier unknown to man, he's out there pushing the limits, trail braking into the abyss. Finding out where the edge of the razor is, turning to face the darkness and revving his 690 into it's vast gaze. You gotta live this to learn it bro.

If I win, I'm choosing your bike in a million pieces or your bike in an impound lot

The first one I have down but the second one might be difficult now that I own a SV rather than a KTM :v:

What do you have in mind here because personally, any animal that I think is even close to "ridiculous" is not one I'd come across on a bike.


Goon/misogynist answer is revert to the "take a pic with a member of the opposite sex" challenge.

It's a good challenge if you have to think about it or go ride your bike somewhere to get the job done. :colbert:

Here we go, taken in front of what used to be an old Catelli Pasta Factory. Built sometime around the war and closed in the early 90s. It is now reconfigured as shopping and offices. Big dollar store (in case you missed it), a cool model/toy store and a Montessori school.

:siren: NEW CHALLENGE IS INCOMING - JUST TRYING TO WORD/GIVE AN EXAMPLE :siren:



Gah, a little bit too late! :)

Oh well, I'll post mine anyways:

Took a personal day today to ride around after my grandfather passed away last weekend.



It was originally a house and then converted to a general store/sandwich shop/gas station. It stands at the intersection of Skaggs Springs Road and Highway 1. The end of Skaggs is pretty much a goat trail, but the road leading up to that is very nice, beautifully paved, quick road with good sight lines. Unfortunately, the speed limit is 30-40 through most of it, so uh, it takes awhile to get down it.

If only I had my gopro on today. I went for an awesome brap over lunch, and got two kids on bikes doing the universal "DO A WHEELIE" sign, and one kid giving thumbs up, who I beeped at :3:

Only afterwards did I think that I should have banged it off the rev-limiter at him.

I waved to a kid facing backwards on my commute today.

I think this is the best challenge cause it's just spawned a bunch of stories about waving at kids.
