Riding Game

[Zim]

Couldn't resist.



It's in my front yard. Since I didn't ride, the tag is still a park bench. Maybe I'll get a legit one later, but not on this bike. Still down with a bum brake light.

Well..... I went out tonight intending to get tags......but 20 minutes into the the ride, a heavy sense of uneasiness set in...So I went home. Zim, before the riding season ends, one of us should use the angry clown in Middletown as a tag. That would be cool

Eric sliding in with a home plate shot on Skunky to tie the game for Old_skool ....

and the park bench tag for the win!

New tag is a threefer, but only one is needed.

Eric didn't say which one so I'm posting them all.
A Zoo.

A golf cart repair store.



Last, but not least classic car or cars.

[gsrick]

I'm going for it in the morning on my Sunday morning ride. If it's the right weekend, I might be able to pull a hat trick. I'm for sure on two, a maybe on the cars.

[gsrick]

Alright, I've got all three. Heading home to post photos.
1) Classic car show.




2) Golf cart repair shop.




3) A Zoo.

No need to get the hat trick, but I'm putting it out there for the challenge.

1) A zip line. This is a sign for Wekiva Falls zip line, but it is a very popular place and I didn't want to wait it the long traffic line to take a photo. A sign will do if you have to pay to get to the actual zip line. They have them at the zoo, so that is what these photos are. Also there is a system of cat walks that spans the zoo, so you get a birds eye view.

Two girls were at the end of the sky trail and hit the last zip line a 500 footer. The guy on the ground under them is their guide.






2) A large pavilion at a park. This is at Wilsons landing off of SR46.

3) A lawn mower repair shop. Mervs Mowers also on SR46.

I like the Beetle bug at the car show....in fact, I just picked up a coupe baja projects. These things are as easy to work on as GSes, in some aspects easier, and cheap parts as well.

2 out of 3....
Local mower shop.. Building still has the 50s style from the gas station it once was...


Zip line sign from the local YMCA camp..

Next!

Muffler Man or similar giant, preferably, but not necessarily humorous...
Muffler men were used as advertisment for a chain of muffler stores years ago, holding mufflers in their outstreched arms..Some remain and have been used in other ways.

He didnt want to ride..some baloney about the bike being too small.

[gsrick]

Whoever made that Muffler Man must have been an Alfred E Newman fan. MAD comics main character, if anyone is scratching their head over who Alfred E Newman is. Someone on a puter will have to post a comparison for me, but if my fried memory is firing on 9 out of the 10 cells I have left, Muffy there is a dead ringer. BTW the Muffler Man down here was or maybe still is made fror muffler and exhaust parts and doesn't have quite the stature of that guy.

Alfred .

[old_skool]

Tom's right Rick, Alfred E Newman

[dorkburger]

The Roadside America link attached to my post gives a history of the Muffler Men and their variants. Interesting light reading....

[gsrick]

Yeah I just remembered it was Alfred and was hoping I would catch it before someone else noticed. Guess I'm only running on 8 out of 10 remaining brain cells. lol Alfred Alfred Alfred Alfred Alfred. There that should do it for a while. Spitting image eh? Could you imagine having to drive by and see that mug every day.
