Next... bike parked in the shade on a fun or scenic road.
LOL - In football this would've been a lateral.

Next up: Animal statue or statue of local hero.
Local hero Secretariat, just in time for the 150th Run for the Roses on Saturday.
Bonus points for hopping the median onto the roundabout for a better picture:

Yeah, I probably should have bought the R. Hopping curbs on cast wheels is kinda dicey.Bonus points? I hop a curb every day I go the gym. But I am riding a Super Tenere, and yours is only a KTM.
I wouldn't worry too much about it. I hit a concrete insert for a manhole with the Honda, that has cast wheels, at speed. The road around it had sunk, leaving about a 3" edge. It put a little ding in the rim but held air fine. So, unless you're hopping/hitting curbs at 20mph, I would think you'd be fine.
I am still new to playing this particular Tag game. Are File Photos allowed for the new Tag?
Thanks
Thanks

@Saint rob - That's a little too specific. There isn't going to be a ton of riders with any potential to grab that pic. How about you use the same picture, but make the grab a bit more broad for what is shown?
Since you need to ride to pick up the tag, this may sit for a loooooooooooooooong time.
As long as it's a "your file" photo. Not something random found on the internet. (IIRC)

I respectfully (and vehemently) disagree......I was explicitly told NO FILE PHOTOS when I posted a file shot, the rationale being that the whole purpose of this thread is to get people out and riding.
I could probably have grabbed 90% of the tags here if file photo's were allowed, please reconsider your reply.
EDIT: Post #8 in this thread, by Checkswrecks:
"Tag games usually have a cardinal rule that NO file photos are allowed. The underlying idea of the whole thing is to share a ride, so the photos can't have already been taken. An easy way to assure this happens is for the person making the new tag to put something somewhere in the photo and point out what/where it is. Not all of us live where helmets are required, so for example place a pair of gloves or a stone on the seat/tank/rim/etc. "
Somebody make up my mind for me.
So is it File Photos or not for the new tag?

I hate to contradict Ericv, but the rules are listed in post #8. (no file photos)
I actually play in another Tag Game that Ericv also plays in that one allows File Photos for the new tag.

I stand corrected. Several tag games I play allow the new tag to be a file photo. As @thughes317 pointed out, post #8 clearly indicates no file photos for this game.
This presents the question concerning @Saint rob 's Artic Circle tag, which would appear to be a file photo. If so, Saint rob, please give us a new tag photo and new tag.

At this point Saint rob has changed the tag to "your bike loaded for camping". How about we just roll with that and continue to maintain the no file photo rule?
