Are we going to move this along yet? Bank Holiday weekend... Nice weather, is it time that somebody set a new "easier" task just to get things going? 🍻

I think at this point, broadening it out to any Repair/ Recovery Service vehicle might help...

What's the point in challenges being easy. They wouldn't be a challenge then.

If nobody's managed to do it after four months...

When I've been out, I've been looking for RAC vans, but haven't seen any :(

Spotted this just after voting yesterday...

The next challenge:

Your bike and an Aquarium/ Sea Life Centre/ even an Aquarium Shop will do ;)

Easy one for me I live right near one, but I'm still traumatised from looking for an RAC van for four months 😅

I think that the issue lies with the fact that Fazers don't need the RAC etc!!!! :lol

Mine did when the big end went after only 66k miles :(

From what I can tell, though, I was just very unlucky, because I've seen many Fazer engines keep going for 100k miles or more.

I rode by the aquarium today with the intent of grabbing a pic.  There was a pretty big crowd and damned if there was anywhere nearby to park and snap a pic with the signage in the shot without looking like the most entitled douchebag ever. :lol
