SWMBO'd got a new ride this fall and hasn't had it out yet so I suspect we will be in the wind allot this summer. |

I usually start the thread each year as I do the Polar Bear Run... I'll take a shot at keeping track, my anal retentive engineering brain needs more work.
And, I'll throw in a prize. Especially since I'm going to win ...Current Target: Boat Ramp at a River |

 Savannah River. Next target: in the spirit of the snowstorms across the USA, your bike on a snowy road. (edit, you don't even need to ride it - just push it down to your neighborhood's street from your house )

No old pics...Old School Rule.
Bridge is a good 100+ building so, the target is: Your bike with a building 100+ years old. And no one died to make me a judge, but I have opinions. @VACarver... It's all good. |

If the bridge was an old pic, the target should still be a 100 plus year old building. -1 point for Gryffindor for using old pic. |

If it wasn't 20 degrees out today, or if my drive to work wasn't 45 mins, I could get both the building and a sign advertisement in one pic.
I work across the street from the oldest building on main street, which has a cool old Dr Pepper ad on the side of it. Our building was built in 1918, not sure when theirs was built. The Dr Pepper ad is one of the old 10, 2 and 4 ones. |

The Dr Pepper ad is one of the old 10, 2 and 4 ones. It's way too cold to ride (and I can't get my bike out due to snow), but if I could, I could knock out the boat ramp, the old building, and the soda sign within 15 minutes. |

 Next: House that was at one point the home to a famous/notable US military officer. Did some 0-60 and 1/4 mile tests with my Aim GPS lap timer while I was out. Tough to get a decent launch without triggering it to start prematurely. Launches were pretty tame because the laptimer was only holding on by some magnets. 0-60 3.36 in 133ft. 60ft time of 2.15 which is crap, I ought to be able to do about 1.8. 1/4mi of 11.48 @ 122. I've done quicker on my VFR750. Also determined the bike's recorded max trip speed of 150 equates to 139. |
