A reiteration of the rules.
1. All challenges must be of YOUR bike and a landmark, or something obscure or creative, something most people can ride to in their area.
 
2. Picture has to be taken after challenge is made.
 
3. Challenge is good for a week; if it is not met after that time, the previous picture poster picks a new challenge.
 
4. Nothing illegal to be challenged.
 
5. Keep comments to a minimum; if you comment, post the current challenge in bold type after your comment.
 
6. No repeat challenges.
 
7. No other bikes can be used, eg, your bike next to a Ducati. Some exceptions will be allowed, eg, your bike next to a bike cop.
 
8. Only 1 person can win each challenge; any other entrants will not be counted, due to throwing the whole game off track and adding challenges that don't stand.
 
9. If any dispute about a challenge occurs, 3 oks from others settles the challenge.
 
Remember, this thread is supposed to get people to want to go ride straight away and beat others to the challenge - be creative, but be sensible about it.
 
Have fun Foccers!

Here's my bike outside the venue for the London Alternative Market which is where people shop.

And it's on a farm today (hence the barn).

Therefore it's a Farm Shop! :-)

So your next challenge is your bike next to some railway tracks...

Well here my attempt. I appreciate that you can't actually see the tracks in the picture but it was as close as I could legally get haha
I'll leave it to the judges

Don't... I wanted a red one but this one was newer, better spec'd and had the matching panniers for £200 more so made sense. Tbh it's grown on me haha

Anyways back to the topic at hand
If mine counts then the next one is

YOUR BIKE AND A WINDMILL

Preferably a traditional one but I'll accept a modern white thing if that's all that's going 👍🏻

I'll accept it.

My original idea was a Level Crossing, but I realised that that might be more tricky for some parts of the country.

Actually I was bemused as to where the thread had gone and was looking for it. I then spotted it in the pinned. Maybe give it time for people to realise where it is. I myself have been a little busy this week. Everyone must have at least wind turbines near them.

Windmill and wind turbine are two different things, surely. Mods, clarify eligibility please

Being old-school, naturally I went for the vintage option :D ...

Excellent 👏👏

It looks like there's no takers for this one, perhaps an easier challenge?

Looks like this is too hard for people. How about something a little easier.
