Merry-go-round, anybody?

It sucks that today is the one day of the week I could easily get out on a bike to snag a mark, but I have no idea where i could find a real merry-go-round.  In the vast expanse of suburban North Texas, all of the old-style playgrounds were long ago converted into the new plastic fantastic types where "dangerous" things like see-saws and merry-go-rounds have been done away with.  I'm sure some still exist in the area, but I have no idea where.

Should we institute a time limit?  Someone mentioned they know where one is though...

Time limit maybe, but the merry go round was only posted about 2 days ago.
I know where one is about 20 miles away.
But between work and rain it has been kind of difficult to make the run.
At least give it through the weekend before we jump ship.

If it wasn't a challange, it wouldn't be any fun.

And double extra credit! Nice...
I'd like to suggest that any picture of a mark that also has strippers gets extra credit.  A merry go round with a bike and strippers?  What more could a man want?
"Sure, if you don't want that bike in your backyard, I guess I'll take it."  "I'll probably just scrap it......"

so I found this thread late last night and its effing genius!  However, I am curious about references to credit and "extra" credit...  Is there an end to this game?  Will a winner be declared??  (scrapevalue is the obvious front runner at this point...nice work!)

Anyway...I'm stoked to participate as soon as my bike comes back from the shop after being run down by a chick in a Porsche Cayenne....

will SOMEONE call Liquid Choppers to find out where the hell my finned engine covers are??  The ones I ordered and paid for on 8/11...the ones I need to finish my bike and get it out of the shop and back on the road??

UGH!!  Seriously, they all left for Sturgis and didn't leave anyone behind to man the business and process orders.  WTF...?

I really wanna get scavenging...stop rubbing it in!  ;)

 O.K. this isn't the greatest pic but nobody was doing any better. There used to be one of the more classic ones in a park closer to my house and I went there first. It's gone. This is sort of a newer type and I didn't want to push the bike closer but you can see it behind the bike between the swing set bars.
 
 
 
 If this is "good enough", good enough and I'd pick a fish. Not as hard as it might seem. Actually pretty easy. A pic of your bike near a fish.

 No, just a fish and as far as I'm concerned the previous post works. I figured someone would post a pic in front of a fish resturaunt or something.
