This is an idea that's has a lot of participants on other forums, and it's a lot of fun if enough people participate. The basic idea is this; while riding find certain objects or signs or whatever to take a pic of your bike in front of. Your bike has to be in the pic as well as whatever the specified object is. The first person to post the specified pic wins that round and gets to choose the next object. It's common for multiple submissions separated by only seconds, site time stamp will determine who was first.The object chosen can be as hard or easy to find as you like, as long as you can put a bike in front of it. Let's go with your hometown sign as the first object to find, just to get started. Don't forget to choose another object if you win! The person who named "hunt" needs to verify the picture meets the requirements.

So the "wintered" in folks aren't left out. You can place a piece of riding gear, helmet, gloves, etc, in plain site on your car hood with the "hunt" in site.

Nice! I love these. I am in. I do like to sneak out a couple times a winter if I get the chance for a SHORT ride a couple times a winter so maybe I can get a real win.

OK, it's been a few days. Nobody riding? It's a easy target, well at least if you live around a town with a name.

 

[Boog]

Here we go

Next target, the sign saying leaving a town or city. That was my very first target on a scavenger hunt. Below is an example:

Not that the weather will break enough for me to get out, but would a
"Y'all come back" or
" Thanks for visiting " work.
You know I like to stretch the intent of challenges.

You were the one who posted the challenge I eventually got with Yamato there. I'll meet you halfway one this one. I will accept the "Thanks for visiting" sign but not the "Y'all come back".

Yea, but I've moved and the "country" way of doing things. Hey, I asked for a change.

 

[Boog]

Bueler?

 

[lesblank]

Got to some of y'all out riding. Come on, you can get this one.

 

[AlanRides]

Apologize for the glare, but this time of year it seems the sun is always in my face, no matter what direction I'm pointing. I'll make the next target easy: your bike and a fire works stand. Hopefully there are plentiful stands this time of year.

 

[Boog]

Nothing can be keener than to be in Pasadeener in the morning...

 

[lesblank]

It's called Stinkadina in the Houston area due to all the refineries. It's better now but you would get high sniffing the air, especially on a motorcycle. Maybe that's why I'm so crazy now.

 

[AlanRides]

That's just the smell of money......

 

[CarGuy]

Here ya go!

Next up, and in keeping with the ongoing holiday season. Your bike with a sprig of mistletoe!

 

[lesblank]

How's this, arrows are mistletoe.

 

[CarGuy]

Do you really have that much mistletoe around your home? Wow. I've got a few trees with some in them but not that much. It's not exactly what I had in mind, but since I outshined you on the business mascot, I guess I'll accept that. What's next?

 

[lesblank]

Actually almost every non cedar tree around me has mistletoe. @CarGuy and I both had a scavenger hunt target on another forum, I beat him by seconds posting, but his was closer to the intent of target, so he got it.

Next, your bike and a cell tower, not a far away picture, but close enough to clearly see bike and cell tower, like this.

I'm on four forums that do scavenger hunts. Weather was great today so went out to get some. Only got one while out and one when I got home. Had a great short ride.

A little warning about me and scavenger hunts, I stretch the intent of target time to time, heck, almost every time. Don't be shy about calling me out on them.

 

[lesblank]

Gotta let y'all know how crazy I am. On another forum @CarGuy posts this for scavenger hunt.

I'm currently under a burn ban, so I'm out of this hunt. But wait, let me think a bit. Here's what I posted:


OK, hear me out.

"Bike as backdrop of roaring fire". fan makes a roaring sound.

"Such as an outdoor fireplace (or indoor if brave enough) . This is an indoor fireplace that's outside.

Meets all requirements, prove me wrong

Yes, I'm kidding, but had fun doing it. See, I am a "Loose Nut" .
Should have heard me explaining to wife what I was doing.

 

[CarGuy]

Yeah, I gotta call you out on that one @lesblank . You stretched the mistletoe thing, but an electric fireplace does not meet the description of a roaring fire!! I'm actually surprised you didn't fire up your bbq grill!
