North American Wild Card Moto-Tag Game

[Old Guy]

That's a bit better tag, Walt.
It's not about being easy or hard, it's about being interesting enough to go out of your way to get it!!

Yeah. I actually thought the rain challenge would be a softball and someone would get it quickly and keep the ball rolling.

Good grab, though, wfooshee. You actually rode in the rain to get it.

I can't see your challenge picture. Maybe there's a permissions issuer where it's posted. All I get is the following. No big deal; the challenge is well explained. But I wanted to let you know.

 

[Old Guy]

Now I see the picture. Aren't computers grand?

All's well.

Hey. I'm saving the tires on the FJR for a trip. Do I understand a different bike can be used even if I have an FJR in the garage?

 

[wfooshee]

You caught it during an edit. When it posted, the contrast was so low the horizon melted into the sky, didn't even look like a distant view. Fixed the picture and reposted, and you just happened to load the thread during those few seconds.

And since the guy who started the thread is using a non-FJR, one assumes it's OK to so so!

Ah, that 'splains it Lucy A screen refresh fixed it here.

I'm sitting here trying to think of a good vista fairly close that I could grab this afternoon. I've probably got the tire for the trip, but my ZRX is feeling rejected.

 

[BkerChuck]

I would consider any bike to be okay unless the tag specifies FJR. Nice picture. I may have to get off my butt and grab my camera.

Well, now, that's an idea

Really, I thought rain would be easy. I couldn't believe it'd take someone two weeks to find rain.

Well, here's a vista. This time of year it is a bit obstructed, what with all of the foliage, but in the leafless seasons it's a pretty spectacular view. This is from the top of Mt Uncanoonuc, one of the two monadnocks overlooking the small city of Manchester, NH (Uncanoonuc is Indian for "womans breasts"). There even used to be a ski lift on this hill.

For a new tag, another vista of sorts... Get a shot with a view of an airport runway.

This is Manchester Regional Airport. The hills you see over on the left side of the picture are the Uncanoonucs. The bigger one on the left was what I was just up on top of.

Short ride, small bike.

 

[wfooshee]

Damn! Didn't even finish the day! Now we're playin'!!!!!

Ya know, I have to ride by a runway to get home..... But I can't get the next one. But if: two tags in one day... What would folks think of this game then?!?!?!?

Rule 12:

12. 2 by 2 rule: After a player has grabbed a tag and posted a new one, that player is not eligible to grab the next placed tag unless the tag has sat for two days or longer. This one keeps the game from being monopolized by a couple of players and gives more people (with real lives) a chance to participate.

 

[wfooshee]

Yeah, I know.

But I can't get the next one.

 

[PhilJet09]

Hmmm, I wonder how I could get this next one...

Too bad I'm out of the country and away from my bike.

 

[Fred W]

It doesn't have to be your bike

 

[PhilJet09]

I'm in the home land of Ducati and Aprilia and all I see at the airport are scooters. I REFUSE to take a picture of a scooter. I'll keep a look out for a real bike though. Might be hard getting a shot with a runway in the background, but I'll try.

 

[whataboutbob]

This is my local grass strip runway

New tag.your bike with a train

 

[ericboutin]

WOW!! Zoom Zoom Zoom!! Game on huh! Super fast grabs!

Hey Bob I just mounted some lights on that fender bolt a couple days ago! I thought I was being original!! LOL That spot was just begging for some aux lighting!! Looks good! I like your "happy" oil filter too! Very cool!

 

[ericboutin]

I also just noticed your '03 trunk! I just bought one from a member on the other site! I'm still contemplating whether to paint it to match or not. It looks pretty good because it matches the silver along the sides and frames etc but I'm still up in the air about it. What are your plans if any! Back on topic Congrats on the quick grab! lol

 

[whataboutbob]

Thanks,I thought the trunk matched ok so I never worried about painting it
