suhawk, you were first last month. You get to set the challenge for September.

The challenge for September is your CB1100 with an electric power plant, or a renewable energy facility in the background. Examples include, but not limited to fossil fuel, nuclear, hydropower plants. Also solar panels and wind turbines are included.

There are plenty of other options with this challenge. You might consider taking your CB to one of Australia’s coastal tidal generators. Just remember to hose-off the brine and sand off of your CB when you return  Wink

A transformer box  or the like would not count, I assume.

Yes,
A transformer either steps up or steps down voltage for transmission or delivery purposes.  Check this for ideas:

RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

Great to be back from a long work week on the road. What better way to settle back in than to take a ride along the coast here in Orange County.

Along with beach views, we’ve also got some power plants that are, thankfully, on the inland side of Pacific Coast Highway. 

Two of these plants are in Huntington Beach next to the wetlands wildlife preserve, and one is painted blue with sea life scenes to at least make it a bit less… power planty? 

The other, along with another plant in the Alamitos Bay further toward Long Beach, are plain power-plant-colored.

Now that's a good-looking bike.

There's a difference in riding a naked bike and riding a bike naked.
Won't make that mistake again.
