Bump for a Beer Truck!! :)


Take a ride down any major street with liquor/convenience stores and you're bound to see one making a delivery.

Sorry, Steve, but as the caller of the "beer truck" mark, and in keeping with the spirit of the game, I'm going to have to respectfully disallow your entry.  But you do get points for effort. ;) 

If we're gonna go with loose interpretations and improvisations on the marks then there's really no point in calling them in the first place.  If the consensus is that we should move on, then I'm cool with that, but it really shouldn't be that hard to find a beer truck. :)

If you can't find a beer truck on the road, take a ride by a distribution center in the evening or this weekend.

Or if you just ride down any major street with lots of convenience stores or liquor stores you'll see at least one stopped to make a delivery.

Did I kill the Scavenger Hunt with my beer truck mark? ???  I see them all over the place, but maybe that's just because I'm always in the mood for a beer. ;D  Is it legal for the person who called the mark to also submit a picture of it?

I saw one at a stoplight the very next day after you called it.  I was in my truck with no camera...  A Coors truck it was.

Just took a ride into town and the Festival by the Bay is going on.
Rode by the beer tent and this truck was there. Took a crappy picture with my crappy cell phone.
I know it is some what of a stretch, but it is a beer distributors truck.
Bayside beverage to be exact. Plus it is a Miller lite truck, so if you don't want to use it, that's cool.
I will let you guys decide if it qualifys or not before I call another mark.

Not a stretch at all.  That's exactly what I meant.  If it's a truck that delivers beer, and has a beer logo on it, it's a beer truck! ;D ;D  The non-major brand stuff was just for bonus points.  Good work!

It's your call now...

How about a water dam.
This one is the fugitive dam just down the road from the dragons tail.
It was in the movie 'The Fugitive" with Harrison Ford.
Anyway, any dam will do. Small or large.
The bigger it is, the more points it is worth.

Rule #1

Rules are simple:
1. All pics MUST include your own bike with the 'mark'. If your bike isn't in the picture it does NOT count.


Please try again.

St Anthony Falls Lock and Dam on the Mississippi River in Minneapolis




Just so I cover the bases a waterfall too with a lock and dam.  St Anthony Falls.  The only waterfall on the Mississippi River.  The falls have been covered by a cement apron 130 years ago as the ledge was soft sandstone and the falls migrated upstream at the rate of a few feet per year.  This was the industrial heart of the city's flour milling district in the 1800-1900's and the falls provided power for the mills






Very nicely done. Definetly get extra credit!
I hope everyone was paying attention and has learned something from this fine example of how to play the game.

NOW NAME THE NEXT MARK! ;)

Well this isn't at a gentlemans club, just a bar in south florida.
The girls weren't strippers, but they said they were dancers,(is there a difference?).
Anyway, this isn't the mark and I am not asking for it to be considered.
Just figured this thread is all about pictures and well, it is just something to look at until the real thing comes along.

What is that in front of your seat?  A gas tank or a fire extinguisher?   ??? :D

It is the gas tanks.
They are made out of 5 inch thin wall tubing.
It is flat on the top and will hold a 30 pack, or two dancers.

I really do love that bike.  If I'm ever in Michigan, I'm coming over to gawk at it.  I'm thinking of stealing your tank idea for my guzzi.

Scrap,
That picture you just posted is a good idea for another mark.  Not too many pay phones left around, especially where you could ride a bike up to.  A working phone booth would be even harder to find.
