CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

[zbillster_imp]

I searched all over the appropriate side of town before the deadline ... could not find one ... and I live in Texas, mind you!

This place had just about everything else.

I do not like the Cone of Shame ...



So what's the challenge for July? Putting in a lot of miles Sunday so I should be able to find "it" ...

I'll post the July challenge tomorrow night. I guarantee it will be easier than tamales (or windmills) lol

Pfffft ... I've got windmills covered ... I'll be passing by about 30 of them tomorrow! Plus a local high school has one.

Dang, should have remembered the photo challenge. Friend gave us 4 homemade tamales that we had for dinner tonight. Too late now.
Would the banana leaf wrappers draped over the seat count?

Yes, I know it's months late, but which month did it relate to?

Lost right hand glove and had to walk back and look for it?

only need one un-gloved hand to use the loo?

you don't need one of those fancy K&H high seats if you have enough foam in the garage?

I'd rather ride than clean?

Eat some of those Tamales and you'll have to park and run to the green building in the background?

I give up..which one?

 

[peterbaron]

wash me , please
Mine looked like this last week, but now is clean

Really had to zoom in to find the windmill, but that would have been April.

Not a good clue, but one of my samples later tonight for the July challenge just happens to have a windmill in it. After all, we all know how much Ferret :biker: loves windmills! :angel:

 

[emptysea]

Ferret loves windmills because he dreams the impossible dream.

 

[the Ferret]

is that another clever joke at my expense? :-/

 

[emptysea]

yes lol
the expression "tilting at windmills" has it's roots in the novel "Don Quixote" and sometimes is used to describe a person who pursues fantastic or romantic goals. Sometimes the phrase is applied to someone who is vain, but more often it is applied to someone who has magnificent dreams/goals. The musical "The Man of La Mancha" includes a song "The Impossible Dream (The Quest)" and is based upon the novel. So, my reference above really is about your (Mickey's) pursuit of a the romantic fantasy you have have with motorcycles.

Whew...that was a long way to go for an explanation. LOL I hope it makes sense.

The photo challenge for July is signs or displays featuring the name of a town, usually found at the city limits as you enter. Welcome to <name of town> signs are OK, but I really prefer a display of some type that involves some effort and exhibits some community spirit.

The official green highway signs with the town names do not qualify. As always, your CB1100 needs to be in the picture

Examples include:

Post, TX

Shallowater, TX

Ransom Canyon, TX

Happy Hunting ...

 

[use2b_imp]

it ain't Midnight yet in Tx so I may make it your CB next to a Goldwing Valkyrie :beerchug: LOL

Scholars we have ;]

 

[Cormanus]

Bloody oath! I just posted one in anther thread. But it doesn't count as it wasn't taken after the announcement of the competition. Here it is anyway.

 

[emptysea]

How's this?

Actually like this one better, but the "Welcome to Chicago" is not as prominent.

 

[RockHop_imp]

Looks like a winner MTC.

I'm hoping to see a lot of small town displays, so feel free to escape the big city. Besides, the riding is better in the boonies. lol

 

[use2b_imp]

Felt like a Sport bike being back on the CB

 

[RockHop_imp]

Really nice one use2b. Couldn't get any closer to home lol

 

[the Ferret]

Good going MTC and use2be

use2be we expressed that same sentiment in the size-weight thread
