I was riding to work today and drove past the "famous" bollwevil monument here in Enterprise AL. I thought it'd be cool to start a thread of the GS500 parked in front of various Landmarks around the world.
I hate to start a picture thread without a pic but I will post one of the monument and modify this post.
I am sure there are plenty of you out there that live near something famous. upload your pics to the photogallery and post a link to it here.
Great idea!!! We'll try to get a landmark pic over the next week or so! :thumb:
Um, how famous are we talkin?
Here's my bike with one of the dinosaurs in Cabazon (just west of Palm Springs).

Yes! i thought the same thing! "what about your big 'but' simone" :laugh:
I think this is a great Idea, perhaps John could make it a sticky. It will give us all a feel for the other members localities and trips.
Turd, you need to go get a GS next to the World's Largest Ball of Twine about 2 hours east of Manhattan in Cawker City.
How about my GS in front of Tim Horton's :laugh: Canadian landmark, eh? (This particular Tim's is in Fergus, Ontario)
