Still looking for this target: House that was at one point the home to a famous/notable US military officer.

How about a local notable Officer? Next target is your bike with a covered bridge?

Rear Admiral Robert Shumaker

This is where he grew up-

I had planned to ride a different bike, but I got 1/4 mile down the rode and it shut off and wouldn't restart.  Flashing a warning light and even clearing the codes didn't help, they keep returning. So fuck the modern overly electronic shit and away I went on the trusty carb'd SV.


Three different bridges in close proximity.




Next target:  Stick with your bike and local LE vehicle.  Performance awards are optional.

It was 70 here today. Great day to pick up your new bike at the dealer.

Was hoping that target was going to be confirmed. I was uniquely positioned for that one.

Either way, it was a great day to knock off some of the cobwebs. Tomorrow is going to be pretty good, too. Too bad we're dropping back to the 40's next week.

In the spirit of keeping this going, because a lot of us have great weather coming, keep the target as is. Now if/when @whippet06 gets back to us with a reply, or IM, I will edit the post count.
I did an edit in the OP, photo must be new. @M60 we deemed you the judge, feel free to amend.


Target: Your bike at a bike shop/dealership.

You get to see the back side of my Triumph this time.   It's the closest shop to me yet the first time I've ever been to it.  Kawasaki, Yamaha, Suzuki, KTM, Can-Am and watercraft.  Lots of inventory and two other shops in the region.




Since I've decided I'm going to join the volunteer firefighter+EMT ranks, specific company yet to be decided:

Your bike and a volunteer firehouse, preferably with an open garage and visible apparatus.



Got my other bike working too today, that will be in the next photo.

Swapped out the front MAP sensor with one from my race bike and that resolved the issue that results in four error codes that don't have anything to do with MAP sensor.


Next:  Your bike and a National Guard armory.

Can’t get behind the gate but have been to the armory with Scout troop back in the day.

If I made it in time, then your bike and a school, high, middle or elementary. If you have an old schoolhouse that would be even cooler.

Is the dive bar a tough target? I may have spent too much time looking for dive bars 50-100 miles away! I live in a pretty flat part of the state. My rides were just to pick a direction and go 50-100 miles, find a dive bar, get a burger and a beer, and go home! I would just take in the scenery (I find great peace in wide open views) and enjoy the ride. Also why I am going to buy another bagger in a year or two.

Milo McIver State Park
45 min from Portland, 30 min from home.

Camping, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, disc golf, kayaking, boat launches. On the Clackamas River. Been coming here since 1969.

And! In the summer of 1970 Gov. Tom McCall (R) selected this site for the Vortex Music Festival. Set up to get the hippies away from Portland when the annual American Legion convention was coming to Portland. Three days and it worked. A rousing success with great music. Was 8 so didn’t go…
