A lot of effort to get your bike to the track and then go back to your bathroom just to take the photo...

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
Probably just be the entrance gate, but there are other tracks locally I can photo it near, how about the site of an old drag strip? (It's now under Tesco's car park) or an old motocross track that's now part of a mountain bike trail.

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
I have loads of photos of a couple of my bikes running on one of the two decently surfaced runways of the abandoned Željava Air Base in Croatia. At 1.6 kms long, you can do flat out runs (depending on what bike you are riding)
Only mentioned as I would usually be riding around the Balkans this month, and having a few runs up and down the two runways.
Ah, life before Covid...

I was going to say 'Aqueduct', but I'm not sure there's enough around?

If you have to have a 'duct',maybe a viaduct would be more common?KungFooBob wrote: ↑Wed Aug 25, 2021 9:06 pm I was going to say 'Aqueduct', but I'm not sure there's enough around?

Does it count if I do it on a Triumph loan bike? Got a T100 in the garage.

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
Here is the aquaduct up in the hills 10km from my house. Originally built in the 10th /11th century by the Arabs that populated the town, it was very badly restored in 2006. Carried water into the town for some 800 years.
Seeing as I had to endure riding up there in a temperature of 38°c, next challenge is a photo of your bike between an ice cream shop/van and you holding an ice cream of some description.
And I don't know why the same photo is there twice, as only one attachment showing).

It's not immediately obvious but there's cable ducting down the side of the jetty.
