I used to live up the street from a trailer park. They had a row of at least 50 mail boxes. That would have been perfect.

LOL!

I've only seen 5 or 6 together.  Nowadays, any more than that, and they put up a massive square box with lots of individual boxes.  Kind of like the PO Boxes at the post office, but outside on the street corner.

maybe i'll snap a pic tonight when i get home and post it up in the morning if the mark hasnt been grabbed by someone else.  I was out on the road a little while ago and saw a spot of about 10 or 12 old ones together, but its too cold and windy to ride that far away today for a pic lol

Can't, just found out I'm missing the collar from the rear wheel.

See below.

Sux.......darn POs and me for not knowing, cause of the troubles I had getting the darn thing to spin better when torquing <~~spelling) the axle nut.




But.......................one of my other bikes is in the photo in my previous message.

Ok how is this for farm equipment? 
How about a cobblestone street for the next mark. 
bonus if its a old full street and not some of the new small portions they do now.
And someone hurry going riding wensday again.

Yes that cooler has been more miles than some bikes. ;D
Always seems to be popular at the end of the day when nobody brought anything to drink.

Yep, I thought I had it too, but it was some other kind of plant - paving or something.

I'd have gotten a pic yesterday if I hadn't over complicated a gas tank swap (don't ask). Maybe today.

Cement... it is only concrete in its final, hardened state.   ;)
