There's a dragon on the numberplate.

I could have just wheeled it out of the garage but that's hardly in the spirit of the game so I have actually ridden it to Seaham to get this picture

I was trying to find a Unicorn pub, but the nearest one was in Worksop and it's a pretty dull ride.

So - Unicorn crafts it is...

Next we'll stay on a similar theme, only an endangered species, not an imaginary one.

Your bike in the same shot as a Conservative election poster... :D

It's not the dullness, it's the webbed fingered locals that get you. I passed my bike test in Worksop.

I'm to sure what is comparable this side of the water?? We have an election coming up - I can't vote in it, so don't really know what post to look for to put the bike near!! LOL

There's loads of things round here but there was a massive Rishi one up in Richmondshire near Forbidden corner on the way from Hawes to Leyburn. Easy side of a bus size - quite distracting coming into a 90 degree left :o

Difficult one. I chose the Cons as I've not seen any posters of theirs and normally they're everywhere. I reckon one of Macron would be an equivalent in France. He's about as popular as the Tories are here.

Distracting at the best of times, I'd say...

Where are we then? Does Nogs get to pick a new one,or does the challenge still stand?

I didn't think it fitted well enough to post a new challenge! No tories and didn't see a poster of Macron on the ride - so happy to wait for someone to fulfil the brief :D

I took this yesterday but then saw that Noggin had already posted so I didn't bother. However...

I was surprised how few Conservative party signs there were, especially since Richmond/Leyburn/Northallerton is a traditionally Tory stronghold, and it's the PM's constituency.

Next challenge: your bike on a bridge

Same near here in Uttoxeter. Normally all the farmers would have big vote Tory signs out everywhere. Not one to be seen. Quite a few vote Labour signs on some fairly affluent-looking houses, though.

Any way, back on topic - nice work getting a poster from the Top Tory... :)

Mostly Lib Dems in the Cotswolds AONB I've noticed (I work inside it and drive through a chunk of it on my commute).

Not on a bridge,but under one. If that doesn't do,carry on regardless.
