    Name That Place Game

    I think it's the Penobscot Narrows Bridge in Maine. We crossed it coming back from the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia.

    Name That Place Game

    Found it from Google only. It was not familiar to me. That is in one of the 9 states I haven't been to on the bike and one of the 5 I have never sat foot in. So if nobody gets it in a couple days, I think Ross should go for it. It's probably time for a northeast place anyway.

    Correct! Natchez Trace is a peaceful easy-going route with a lot of history. It wasn't quite our cup of tea, as we got tired of the scenery and the lack of curves after a while. But many people love this route. Griff you are up if you want to post a pic!

    I don't think there any complaints on your hints! They were fine. I'm disappointed I didn't have time to check the google maps view to verify the exact location. I remembered the area but not the exact spot and just went with clues. For the next place let's try this one: For the win you need...

    I hate to guess this one since I was here in a car instead of on the bike. But with all the hints no one was picking up on I am feeling sorry for Panman so here goes. I believe it is La Push at the Quillayute River west of Forks (twilight) on 110.

    Correct! Here's a few reasons to see Arches in Moab, UT: The second pic is of delicate arch and is zoomed in a lot. You won't want to hike to the actual arch in motorcycle gear for sure. We did it once with the kids in a car trip and it was a real hike. But the park is a great companion to...

    It always surprises me what you guys guess quickly and what you don't. I thought this would be pretty easy with the scene in the background. The reason this section is not usually fun is it is an entrance. This was taken in the afternoon while it was still almost 100 degrees so there were less...

    Okay, here is a short section of road that looks really fun and should be, but seldom is. Yet I strongly recommend going here:

    Bugnatr, I think Scooter passed last time so you can go ahead and post again if you like.

    I looked back through my pics and Spotwalla and found I drove up Northshore Road (167/169) through the Valley of Fire State Park, but not Valley of Fire Hwy. I still have Death Valley on my wish list, so there is a chance I could still get here some time.

    Well I have ridden through there. I sure didn’t recognize it.

    Bugs, since you don't know the difference between Ohio and Illinois, I am assuming you might not know your western states either, so I will just go on thinking it is in Arizona. :)

    North American Wild Card Moto-Tag Game

    Is this maybe too difficult? I could simplify to any monument, but that's probably been done to death.

    So around here in the FJR community a days ride could be the whole western half of the country from 141  :) I'm going to assume you mean a few hundred miles, though, so I'm thinking maybe AZ?

    Yeah, I saw that cool looking bridge pic for a brief period before it disappeared. I didn't recognize it but it made me want to go there. This new road pic is pretty sweet, too. The way the road twists and is visible in the distance is one of our favorite types of pics. I doubt we have been on...

    Correct that it is Cave in Rock. But you mean Illinois not Ohio. You are up!

    Name That Place Game

    The intent of the hints was to give the general location, so feel free to go for it from google earth. This is the other side of the river from back in 2008:

    Name That Place Game

    Here's a hint or two. I remember the time of this picture specifically because of the storm. I was intending on crossing here to the side with a history of river pirates, but the sky looked pretty odd. I pulled up the weather and there was a severe thunderstorm warning with possible tornados and...

    Thanks! She still struggles with structures but her flowers and mountains are really good.  You noticed the pic is a crossing. That is the first key to the puzzle. I’ll say more about the storm in the next hint which will narrow it down quite a lot.

    This next place is hopefully harder than my last few but still recognizable. The FJR had a lot fewer miles on it back then.
