Did this to a bloke at work. Raised his rear Just off the ground, supported it like so so it's not so noticeable. He went to drive away and the rear wheels just spin.

I really thought I would find a car on blocks with no wheels here in rural Georgia...  I took a 30-mile ride through the countryside and found none! 

But I took a 30-mile ride through the countryside!  Clear skies, clean roads, windy and cold.  Totally worth it!   :woohoo: :D

Rain's supposed to hold off tonight, and I'm waiting on the post man to bring my next batch of parts.

I'll give it a shot tonight! Can definitely get the one on blocks, but that still has wheels..

Edit: Well after an hour and a half ride i come up with nada! i figured i'd get one with no wheels sitting on the ground atleast. Hell i don't think i spotted one flat tire!! I saw some haggard POS's too haha

Could i pull a technicality? I can get a car with wheels on blocks.. the current challenge is "car on blocks" but he mentioned it being wheel-less early :dunno_white:
if yer binders ain't squeakin, you ain't tweakin!

Next to a car with no wheels. As in on cinder blocks or something.

So actually the initial requirement was without wheels, with cinderblocks being the example/condition in which you usually see a car missing one or more wheels. But, seeing as no one has posted anything, and  the week is about to expire, I say go for it!

I didn't expect it to be hard to find, especially when we have people driving 30 miles through rural georgia. Glad you got a good ride out of it though Paulcet!
When in doubt, empty the magazine.

Yeah i didn't think I would have a problem finding a car missing at least 1 wheel here in Southwestern VA..

I mounted my gopro to my full face helmet yesterday, i'll test it out and a car with wheels on blocks at least

Some say that he submitted a $20000 expense claim for some gravel

And that if he'd write a letter of condolance he would at least spell your name right.

If Steezin's pic is good,.........




Next challenge: Your GS next to a fueling station pump that pumps alternative fuel (I.E. Hydrogen, electric, heating oil, kerosene, Liquid Petroleum Gas, Propane)............anything that the GS 500 could/would run on does not count (Also, diesel fuel does not count either).

.......Ummmmm....No, just take a pic of your bike next to the alternate fueling pump at a station......same as taking a pic of your bike next to a gas pump, just a different fuel........No pumping needs to be involved...

-Hope that clarifies things....

Clarifies. Now I wonder ANYWHERE in Aust that does this? Most likely Alternate Fuel that is not e85, gasoline/diesel/heating oil/kerosene is LPG. But LPG might be covered in your ETC. Otherwise I think besides that we cold Maybe park near a small runway and photo an avgas pump otherwise I think most peeps are SOOL on this.

I though the US was pulling up the rear on alternative energy!  I thought hybrids and electric vehicles were all the rage in other countries....In the interest of not causing a world GStwin war, I will reword the challenge to make it more accessible to the rest of the world...Check original challenge posted for change  :thumb:

I'm pretty sure there is an e85 pump in Brissy somewhere.

The buses on Georgia Southern Campus are fueled by Compressed Natural Gas.
Best pic I could get was of the compressed tanks.



Statesboro also has e85

You can always print one out and put it next to your bike.
