ANIMAL! Oh man, I am a big fan of that helmet! Saw one like it a few years back, also home-made and wish I had the talent to make one. Nice job.

RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

For the November challenge, it's your bike in the frame with someplace or something that has seen better days. Ideally, it'd come with a story too (but doesn't have to). For example, this place was a local bar just a few miles up the street up until 2011. The story is that it somehow was associated with a couple of murders. Then it sold to some younger couple who had plans to renovate it. There was a building permit issue, and it's been falling apart ever since. Too bad because it was a popular joint for the old-time locals that have been here long before suburbia encroached.

I like the theme Tommy, and your snap. Thumbs Up

A bit more than a photo-opt. Some background story sleuthing always seems to make the picture feel richer.

So basically a photo of me next to my bike?

Great idea! I am with pdedse on this one: I turn 81 this month and it may be hard to find anything around here that has seen better days more than I, but I will give it my best.

Nice! That costume really brings out the Animal in you...

I have a big Santa head that goes over a helmet, but never tried it on my commute, for fear that it would blow off. How's the Animal head at speed?

Oh man, this one's gonna be easy. I work in a really rundown part of town.
