To hot? I figured Jeff or Gordon would have this already.

I'd have it in a second if I could get out on the bike at all, but weekends are the only time I'm not on full-time kid duty. It's been up around 108 the past few days!

heffay · « **Reply #802 on:** August 01, 2012, 08:58:00 am »

We've had about 50-60 days over 100 already this year, I think... not this past week though. It has been in the high 90s and 60-80% humidity

wtf its not a dry heat this year!

Gordon · « **Reply #803 on:** August 01, 2012, 09:02:22 am »

And who's this "Jeff" guy he's talking about?

heffay · « **Reply #804 on:** August 01, 2012, 09:06:50 am »

wondered that myself

Sweating my ass off in the garage last night. Got the timing set and rolled up to the bank. I took too long and the temp was reading 99°. Intend to get it as soon as I get out of work this afternoon. Hope I don't get beat.

i would have taken a lighter or a mirror to it to see if coulda raised it a degree

JeffSTL · « **Reply #807 on:** August 01, 2012, 02:29:58 pm »

Ugh. I've got it but the file on my phone is too large. Won't be able to post til I get home to the computer. 110° I promise.

JeffSTL · « **Reply #808 on:** August 01, 2012, 04:00:03 pm »

Tried to resize on my phone. Hope it works

JeffSTL · « **Reply #809 on:** August 01, 2012, 04:16:24 pm »

I will only accept 3 bonus points since the actual temp was 103. Seems this one isn't very accurate

.

Next mark = Train Station. Any old, new, operating or not.
this one happens to be the Amtrak station in Kirkwood, MO.

Ah crap, I was at the Markham Historical train station on Monday for a chapter meeting of the Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group & I didn't take a damn picture! Oh well, I'll look for the next one.

Those temps vary so much. we had 2 across from each other and very seldom agreed.

DJ_AX · « **Reply #812 on:** August 02, 2012, 05:15:32 pm »

POW! ... Just last month they completed a new train station / bus stop here in beautiful

Pontiac, MI.

ok whats the next mark? been watching this thread for my chance at getting a mark. do not make it plane or trains ..too easy here.

DJ_AX · « **Reply #814 on:** August 03, 2012, 07:49:56 am »

ok... tried to think of some clever ones but ... didn't $:-\$
maybe next time...

next mark = a stone wall

BeSeeingYou · « **Reply #815 on:** August 03, 2012, 07:19:51 pm »

Next up.....old style drive-in restaurant.....not the drive-up at McDonalds

Extra points for the car hop sitting on your bike.

I know of two in the area so they are still around.

Westlake Drive in, Portage, Michigan!

I think someone forgot to tell the owner it's past Spring!

In honor of Summer Olympics sports, I'd like to see an ARCHERY RANGE or an ARCHERY STORE.

The range needs to have at lease three targets down range. Or if an indoor range, needs the word RANGE or a synonym out front.

The store must be primarily an archery store and have "Archery" sinage. I'm not talking a outdoors "superstore" like Cabela's or Bass Pro Shop. I'm looking for a mom & pop store pretty much dedicated to archery.

Bonus points for a circular bullseye type target in the pic. Double bonus if your country's flag is also in the pic.

DJ_AX · « **Reply #817 on:** August 04, 2012, 02:57:30 pm »

Thought I had this one in the bag easily... Satellite photo made it look like an easy target

But I didn't expect the gate

Not sure if this one qualifies ...

OldSchool_IsCool · « **Reply #818 on:** August 04, 2012, 03:47:28 pm »

Good 'Nuf for me, DJ. Call the next mark!

DJ_AX · « **Reply #819 on:** August 04, 2012, 03:52:48 pm »

Nice!

ok...
Next mark = Your bike with a ball game... in action... in the background.

Any kind of game played with a ball...
Baseball, football, basketball, golf, LaCross, etc.

heffay · « **Reply #820 on:** August 04, 2012, 06:40:19 pm »

now, when you say football... exactly what do you mean?

DJ_AX · « **Reply #821 on:** August 04, 2012, 07:05:51 pm »

I did give that one some thought... and it means... exactly what it means to you.

No cheating by placing a big flat-screen behind your bike, whether American football or rugby is displayed.

On the other hand, a live game of hackey-sack might be accepted?

Don R · « **Reply #823 on:** August 04, 2012, 09:37:29 pm »

I rode past a softball game last night. Dang.

DJ_AX · « **Reply #824 on:** August 05, 2012, 12:38:38 am »

hmmm idk ... maybe if it were Hacky BALL ... but it's a sack.
But as that's the Bandaid of bandages... it's properly referred to as a foot bag.
Now if it were a ball well then it'd be soccer right.... or football.
