What a lovely day!

The forecast looked horrible but if I'd had any idea it was going to be so good I'd have planned a longer ride. Still good, though.

Next - your bike by a railway crossing.

Not part of the game because it was from summer last year but thought I’d post it.

At the new river crossing construction site with the bike almost directly opposite the point the WW2 bomb they dug up exploded a few weeks ago

Plan is to take the ZRX11 out tomorrow, but even if I find a garden center someone will probably beat me to it before I get back.. which will likely be around midnight UK time.

This used to be a crossroads. It's a faded mini roundabout now. As a bonus here's one of a castle as well, with a tasteful shot of my arse in it!

That's probably the oldest bike used for one of these challenges, a 1984 CBX750

Is that because you have an affinity for porta-bogs? :lol:

I could win this one by pushing the bike out of the garage as the neighbor has a Turdis in front of his garage for the guys installing his new pool...

Managed to get a bit of time on the Tuono this afternoon before the rain started- this is about as close as I could get to it ( it's the rectangular orange thing behind the railings :) )

Next:- Your bike with a car originally sold in the USA (ie LHD, US market only) that has been imported to the UK, or anywhere else in Europe in shot, or if you're currently in the USA, it needs to be a UK model car originally sold in the UK and imported to the US ( doesn't count if you've got one of these in your garage @ZRX61, you'll have to go out and find one ;) )

Does a pic from the mid '80's of the '76 KZ900 I bought from a yank at Mildenhall count?

Looking at that skinny fuck in the pic explains why that jacket no longer fits.. (yes, I still have it)
