Leybourne Lakes, Kent (UK) There were a whole bunch of coots, swans and I think pink-footed geese in the area. None of which were kind enough to wander into shot, though they didn't seem particularly perturbed by the bike. And some seagulls perched on the bouys like they just didn't care. Your bike with a live animal (bonus points if not a pet type animal or if animal is interacting with bike rather than just in the same shot) Angrymog fucked around with this message at 10:36 on Mar 18, 2012 |

Bit late for the hospital challenge, but here's my motorcycle, in the dark, in front of a hospital with a box of platlets on the back.

Off on morning expedition to Pluckely, most haunted village in Kent. edit: Trip delayed - still on the wrong side of rather cold. Angrymog fucked around with this message at 09:37 on Apr 6, 2012 |

Why Pluckley counts for the Haunted House challenge: My bike and the church: My bike and the pub: Your bike and some wildflowers (still growing)

Olde Weird Tip posted:Its so happy!! It was actually a really nice ride; got to go on a longish ride that wasn't just howling down the motorway in the dark with a box of blood on the back, then took the scenic route home via country lanes. Anyone else in Kent, the A20 between junctions 8 and 9 of the M20 is a really nice bit of road. Angrymog fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Apr 12, 2012 |

Ghost Cactus posted:Agreed, they're great. (Even though mine have massive chicken strips! ) The 3s are supposed to be spectacular in rain, but I haven't really had a chance to compare since it's been so dry here.

slidebite posted:TAKE A PHOTO OF YOUR BIKE IN FRONT OF A HIGHWAY POINT OF INTEREST SIGN Dammit, I don't think that there's any Secret Nuclear Bunker signs in Kent We don't have Highway Point of Interest signs in the UK - the closest thing are the National Heritage tourist information signs I think.

Should I manage to make it before another goon completes their epic trek, I have the perfect followup challenge. edit: Anyway, you don't understand the trauma involved in navigating the M25 on a Sunday.

Today I have braved the threat of drizzle and navigated through quaint villages to ride a grueling ~876' up a hill. Goons and goonettes, I present to you... Motorcycle with abandoned piano Located on the Ridge which is near the highest point of the North Downs (which is actually in some of the light green bit so not accessible by road *, and my new boots were murdering my feet, so I didn't go to look for it on foot) For your challenge, you may have noticed that this is all located near the rather charmingly named Titsey park, your challenge if you choose to accept it is... Your motorcycle beside a rude place name. * It's also fenced and gated with CCTV on the gates, so no offroad sportsbike adventures

I'll be able to get a horse picture on Thursday if I don't get beaten to it.

Chichevache posted:I wave to scooters. I stopped waving to Harley guys, but then I decided I'd rather embarrass them by giving them a big ol' two-handed mom-waving-at-a-surly-child greeting. Thing I loved about biking in France is how enthusiastically friendly the french bikers are - you get foot waggles and hand salutes (easier there as the non-throttle hand is facing the oncoming traffic).
