    Will this work? Soon after I got the bike running in 2010 I stopped in a neighbor's place and got this in front of their barn

      An unusual spot?
      How about the living room. I don't need no stinkin' couch!

        Originally I was going to go with this one, a pedestrian viaduct under the train line. However, if you read the sign, you have to walk your bike through the tunnel.



        So I have decided to go federal. My Triumph parked on the sidewalk, in front of the door, to the Carol Stream, US Post Office.

          Bob, you are forcing me to drag out some more old pictures.

          July 2006. The event was Wing Ding, the annual gathering for members of the Gold Wing Road Riders Association. Our reservations were at Embassy Suites, Nashville, Tennessee. Pulled up under the canopy to check in to the hotel and asked if there was a good place to park the bikes. The guy looked at them through the door and said "if you just point them closer to the door, they will be fine". So, that's where we parked for the night.





          No, this is NOT a second attempt at an entry, it's just going along with your bike at the door of a public building.

            Since there's apparently going to be nasty weather hanging around all week, I probably won't get out on the bike. So here's a shot I took for the riding game last week.

                    How bout in front of a psychiatrists office. Ever hear that saying before?

                    I can think of a few more and since it's already Thursday I'll throw them out there.

                            Would expect to see bike on road, in parking lot, in driveway, in garage.
                            But am thinking about about bike in some place other than those sort of places.

                            ........l.

                                Dave, (Redman), I really appreciate you taking the time to sum up the entries for us.
                                Makes it so much easier to review all the photos at once.

                                And wow...14 entries. Another bunch of great photos, and a difficult decision.
