Ok here is a hump back bridge, all be it, over a nice safe non busy canal - proof of it being a hump back by the exhaust scratches in the road.
Do you think this will do.

Ok in honer of our FZS
Your bike next to a town or village sign with a letter Z in the name

Has to the name of the village/town - so no short cuts with words like zone  ;)
And no street names

Here we go Grazeley  :)






Just a reminder to everyone to keep it safe - rules state
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.

I doubt that may people visit Grazerley but it looks to me that you "may" of stopped on a "slightly dodgy" bit of road for the shot --- I am just going by the double white lines.
Not trying to have a dig - far be it from me to give people lessons, just sayin.  :D

I can take contructive criticism well  :)

Having said that the double white lines are in the middle and we have dotted line where my bike is stopped. Am I missing some unkown to me Highway Code rule here? It is possible...The reason I have stopped not on the side of the sign is exactly because it was not safe - after a bend with no visibility and solid white line. The place where I do have stopped has very good visibility for all vehicles coming towards me and has dotted white line - means I can stop there fine. Just saying  :D

Good point that.

A537 Cat and Fiddly then!!! :lol :lol :lol


It is not a village?  :lol

Next challenge your bike next to a village sign for a village with name starting with A and ending with Y.

like Ardingly, Abberley, Abbey, Abbeydale etc.
