There are market squares in the USA, lots of Southern California and Arizona towns were started by the Spanish, get out there and ride.

Does a 'Place du Marché' count? Even if there isn't a market happening at that time?

(I bet there's loads of English market squares that don't actually have a market any more too).

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
Is there hell. We have "farmers markets" which takes place in a car park, not a *market square*. Our local one takes place in the parking lot of a winery so far from the town center it's almost in the next town.Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2024 6:48 pm There are market squares in the USA, lots of Southern California and Arizona towns were started by the Spanish, get out there and ride.

He didn't say the market square actually has to have a market in it.

Could be back in the game. Got the ZX11 fired up yesterday after a few minutes of faffery. Plan is to ride on Sunday.

OK, so it's a French Tabac/Presse (tobacconist/newsagent) which also doubles as bar, coffee shop, purveyor of phone cards etc, but I think it meets the brief.
And I'd just been shopping. So top box.

I thought that was one of those round barbecues sitting behind the bike,then you mentioned the TB words.

Do they have to coordinate and have set colours or can they just choose their own? It would be easy for one awkward neighbour to bugger up the whole aesthetic by choosing a bad combination.

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
I don't know if there's a general concensus,or perhaps any bright colour does the job. There's a quite a good community spirit generally. It's probably in the individual's interest to choose a colour which isn't out of place,as it'll make their own pad look shit too! I think you'd have to work at it to be totally gash. There's one further down painted black,gloomy as feck on it's own,but it still fits in.
