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.
VINTAGE SUPER:


Will hopefully have real pics this weekend if I have some free time!

Keep at it.
Silly

This place is the center of legitimate art that you don't understand. You know how you can tell? virtual reality Bjork. If you can tell me what this exhibit is about you're a goddamn liar.

In case that's not enough for you, this photograph represents the suffering inherent in modern life. Dark. Faint electric light barely providing illumination. That's hope. Just enough to take the harsh edges off and mislead you into thinking things might get better. The branches in these trees are the emptiness of modern society, empty of life even though it's springtime. Not even fresh air and sunshine can bring forth life in this concrete hell. The season of rebirth bears only external restrictions. There is only one way, and that is forward. Not stopping. Never "parking." And all the time, behind, the monolithic institute looms. The state, silent and expecting. Pregnant with the stolen genius of the artist-whore.

No excuses....what, did your wife file for divorce or something?

I have to figure out a way to get some pics of me doing babby wheelies cause I haven't done intentional ones in a while and I was never good to begin with.

I managed to get the xr together enough to make an entry for the Super challenge.





Street tires in mud and wet, soggy grass don't hook up much, if at all, which made wheelies quite tricky.

I'm bummed now.

Milwaukee has a bunch of god awful ugly sculptures that we have Waay overpaid for throughout history.


There's also a 10 ton bronze Harley Davidson sculpture at one of the dealerships.

EDIT: I can't imagine that statue weighs much more than some of the HDs I see around here. Also that street fills up with idiot HoG riders every year come. I can get riding with no gloves/jacket but most of these guys are cruising around no helmet, sleeveless vests, minimal eye protection while drinking more than they can handle and generally being dicks. I wasn't around for it last year when I had a bike but I think I might go troll/see if I find anyone cool this year.

And we have the Bronze Fonz.


I think tomorrow I'm going to play catch up, do past challenges for fun and try to get this one in before submissions start rolling in, I've got to get screws for my motor mount anyways. So provided no heavy rain I'll be out and about.

I didn't count but we have like, 6 game rules and thread rules and you broke or misunderstood like half of them. Because of this you are now BANISHED from this thread, voting and playing, until you can complete a Super Challenge.

Not just can complete, but you need to win it unless you happen to post right before someone like Marv's avante garde. So wait till Tuesday when we actually have a new challenge and get ready, so far at least 1 wheel has been off the ground.

I liked Echo's and Razzled's contributions but new content, to me, trumps older video.

Apologies to echomadman for missing is entry, but me missing his posts are business as usual!

I didn't bother counting because there's no reason:

Winner of the Silly Challenge this week is Marv

z3n has lived up to his name and taken the Super Challenge

Post up the new challenges! Also just cause the first two Super challenges were jumps and wheelies, don't think we're about going all stunt with it. I was thinking more challenging with the creativity/finding of challenges, not just getting air and being badass. Marv threw off that idea a bit with his pics this week.

Good Day, Boffins!

Silly/Easy Challenge for the week will involve motorcycles and music. Almost anything goes--I've kept it intentionally broad, as I'd like to see more EU/APAC participation. Ideas/parameters:

- Music related landmarks (all genres)
- Locales mentioned in lyrics/titles
- Re-creating cover art
- Record shop archaeology
- Theater marquees
- Taking your SO to Lake Minnetonka
- Showing off your kazoo collection
- Hanging out at your favorite honky-tonk
- Whatever

Stay safe, and don't go trying to ride with a Daft Punk helmet, they're not DOT/SNELL approved.
