Tiepin lives near the secret bunker that I posted signs to.
Bigyin has one just up the road near Mundesley
I've got several former sites near me, but these wouldn't count as they're no longer in use.
I'm nearer Bushy Hill tbh, but haven't had any spare time of a weekend lately.
Tax your bike for weekday use too?
I'm not allowed out in the evenings. :cry:

Respect my dedication,people. I got cold and wet,plus the bike got dirty just to get this shot. :shock:

Home now with a warm cup of tea.

Next...your bike outside a football ground.

We do :)

I may change it to "you knitting a jumper somewhere" as we're more likely to get more people doing that than riding their motorbikes.

Ah , too late , but I took it so may as well post it- this from my ride this morning ( on the most fun bike in the world ever :thumbup: )

I know where a jet is but that'll have to wait for another day, it' a nice route there though so it'll be a nice excuse to venture out that way :)

It was a bit tongue in cheek, there's actually a boat storage yard about 3 miles away. If it wasn't 103deg, I'd jump on the bike & go take a pic next to the F104 outside Lockheed. There's also an F4 on a stick outside the LASD station & a *set* of Century series fighters by the West Gate at Edwards AFB (F-100, F-101, F-102, F-104, F-105 and F-106)

Nearest ones to me are the Buccaneer at Honington, F100 at Lakenheath, and the collection at Flixton air museum.

Not claiming a win, it's an old photo of a bike I don't own anymore, but I'll post it anyway...

A Mirage, Hunter and what looks like it might be a Hunter trainer (in blue).

If that tender wasn't in the way you'd see a Lightning and a Canberra.
