I think we need more rules and complexities to this prizeless game. What I say? If you want to post  a pic of your bike without a mark, with a mark, with an old mark or the current mark, go for it. who cares, are you going to have points deducted from your final score?

Next mark will be a swing bridge or draw bridge.  Here is a picture of a swing bridge.

This is kind of fun going to get a picture of the mark called and looking for something to call as the next mark. This swing bridge is only 3 blocks away from the antique store.

Hey Scrap,

Is that the Alanson Swing Bridge?

Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

It took some time but I found one (Iknow another one too, a real one at a castle, but that's too far away for "just a ride in the evening")

Reputedly one cannot park in Kalamazoo, so stopping to take a pic could prove to be difficult ;D ;D

I believe yes, not the same picture to make the mark, but mark can be called again.

Technically, we aren't suppose to call the same mark again. But if it happens like this,(it was done in July of 2012), I think whoever got the mark the first time can just repost their picture and claim the prize for the day and call the next mark. Kind of a bonus score.
Or anyone else is free to try for it also.
Not a big fan of rules, so if it makes the game move along faster, it's all good.
This game has been going on for almost 2 years and it is kind of difficult to find out what hasn't been called yet.

I have seen those lists that were made some time ago, didn't remember seeing a zoo in those, must be age related ;D
Wouldn't it be easier to put that latest list in the opening post, much easier to find....

I went back through to July 2012 and found the zoo mark.
Actually, I just did a search for "zoo" and it came up.
You are more then welcome to update the list at any time, as is anyone.
But again, it is just a pointless game and there really is no reason to make it more complicated.
But if robvangulik  wants to call another mark, that would be cool.

I can update the list with minimal effort, but it is not in my power to put it in the first post.

Maybe a sticky in the Open forum?  I will ask moderator.

It IS getting harder to find marks that are doable for a fair amount of people...but as far as I could find a railroad shunting yard hasn't come up yet.

Here is Luray ZOO.

Quite memorable trip, I dropped her on the beginning because I forgot the kickstand.   Did the ton - first time ever on Dorothy III - on 211 and later down the road caught yellow jacket in my right boot. 

Anyway, here is a zoo.  Next mark is school mascot, could be just the sign - like Valley High School, home of the Valley Weasels.
