Premium Member rustyshackles Posted July 16, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted July 16, 2020 Time to take this in another direction I think. Professional sports is returning to our lives (hooray!) so new challenge: photo with your bike and an arena or playing field used by a pro team (any sport, any level) in frame. 1 IBA Member #59800 3 Nations Brewing Mug Club #100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to bring this thread back to life. This one doesn't count, since it's from over a year ago, but i figure SOMEONE should be able to get out and snap a current picture... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member rustyshackles Posted August 5, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted August 5, 2020 Yes, minor league professional teams are also in play. Don’t make me have to do it myself. 3 IBA Member #59800 3 Nations Brewing Mug Club #100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Far too rural where I am, but I'm bumping this thread so it gets the love it deserves. I might even have to go on a run to a city (eek), unless a 2nd division Scottish football team ground would do? Professional, but pretty bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowlin01 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Picture of my GT900 in front of MK Stadium (Milton Keynes Dons Football Team). Next challenge? A picture of your bike in front of a watermill. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member texscottyd Posted September 12, 2020 Supporting Member Share Posted September 12, 2020 Very nice @bowlin01! My wife is originally from Hemel Hempstead, and we still have family in the general area (Berkhamsted, Luton, Leighton Buzzard). She just told me that “...we thought a trip to Milton Keynes was ‘going to the big city’ back then.” I still want to plan a trip to visit that allows me time to do some riding around the UK. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm inbetween Hitchin and Luton, so I'm sure your wife will know the area. I still see MK as firmly in the "Thar be Dragons" section of the map 😄😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roads around Aylesbury-Dunstable and the likes are great fun on a bike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Bike by a watermill (Gatehouse of Fleet, the Mill on the Fleet) , and I found a fantastic wee road back to my place from there, properly awesome. And for the next Photo Requirement.... Your bike by a steam train...... 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At it's retirement in 1961, #225 had hauled 44 million tons of iron ore from the Iron Range of Northern MN, traveling almost 800,000 miles. I hope you all appreciate this picture, because when I left this morning the temp was 38F. However temps quickly warmed up to a balmy 45F, so I did a little ride around town to take in some of the fall colors. This leads to the next challenge. Number 225 Steam powered Locomotive.
