'tis a proper pub pub too - the type that's closing down at the rate of 21 a week currently, open fire, proper real ales and a great little garden out the back for the kiddies and dogs to cause havoc in  :laugh: Tonight there's a duo playing decent rock covers as well so should be a bit of a grin  :cool:

So in the spirit of International Inclusiveness rather than narrow minded exclusivity :wink: the next challenge is directly related to the last:

A foaming tankard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankard) of ale perched upon the perfectly suited tank top of your GS (or whatever). A tankard (or beer stein) is basically a vessel with a handle for consuming beer to make it easier to hold on to later in the evening when things get blurry :D
Quadruple bonus points if there happens to be a gorgeous barmaid (or barman if that's your thang) also in the pic.
:cheers: and bottoms up!  :)

Quite a hot mess of things.  Italian bike, German "tankard" (Warsteiner), Irish Ale (Killian's Red).  Eh, not typically my drink of choice but I'm a little short of "good" beers and even shorter of beers "worthy" of the glass tankard.  But I was feeling a beer so I suppose I'll move this along.

No bonus points, this is all at home...





Lets see...

Your bike by an electrical substation.

I can get the electrical substation tomorrow. There's one right down the road, and I'm riding to work tomorrow. In order to get the game going again, so you have any suggestions for the next challenge?

Careful DHS doesn't flip out a little bit if you go park in front of a substation, get off the bike then go wandering around taking pictures.

This is post-9/11 America. peeps get detained for less.

Let's hope not! This one was a quick stop for fear of getting run over. I thought for sure the pull off was a little more easily accessible. So anyway, excuse the bit of glove in the corner of the photo.



Next challenge! Your bike in front of a cemetery/graveyard/tombstone. This one has probably been done before, but I think most of us have been out of this thing long enough due to winter weather...

This game is almost 300 pages long, "everything" has already been done before, lol!

Thanks! It's an '09...I really like the black/grey/red color scheme. I was actually in the market for one of the earlier models (I think '05ish) with similar colors, but came across a good deal on this one and couldn't pass it up. It's all stock except for the red bits and LED turn signals that the PO installed (assumingly after he crashed it).

I was hoping to get a photo with the electric company's logo and the substation sign visible, but it's located on an intersection where there's a quick little blind hill leading up to a stop sign. Stopping where I did was dicey enough lol.
