There's the slight question of when the pic was taken....

I was thinking in front of Urulu or outside Rossi's place but I'll go with Prison Gate.

There’s a car in there as well.
I’ve been waiting for 2 months for a space on a container. I’m assuming that they put more stuff in after the photo.
Only cost me £600 so I’m happy.

There will be more cost on tut gets to Melbourne though

Prison gate is the challenge I think.

A few of your pictures seem to be taken in the same place. Is it a meetup point?

Also, the link to the picture is "https://i.ibb.co/YL8SP28/IMG-20240519-131010866.jpg" which suggests that it was taken or uploaded to imgbb the day before the challenge was set. Is that a misunderstanding on my part and you've ridden to that place in the hour and 20 since the challenge was set? If that's the case then I apologise for asking but it's not much of a game if the picture was from, say, the weekend. Cheers.

It's a popular bar/restaurant in Calabasas, usually stop there on the way home from rides. Pic was from Sunday.

OK beys and gurls. I'm back in the game now having got the 690 going again.

Can we go with the cop car thing, but also understand that, the game is about you getting out and about on your bike, not dragging pictures from your library. If you have a historic picture you want to post, that's fine. but don't make out it's fresh and you don't get to set the next challenge :thumbup:

I've got a challenge for anyone near Nettlebed*, St Bartholemew's churchyard. :D

Somewhere in it there's a gravestone of blacksmith William Strange with an inscription that starts -

'My sledge and anvil lie declined, my bellows too have lost their wind; my fire's extinct, my forge decay'd'

It's quite famous in the sense that the verse is in the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations and I'd like an image of it. Can I find one? Nope, this Interweb thing is just rubbish, I thought everything was supposed to be on it. :lol:

So, if you happen to be passing...... :D

Prize is you get to be king/queen of the Internet for a week. :thumbup:

* Henley sort of area.
