If someone makes the challenge "your bike sat in its garage with the head and block sat on a workbench" I could complete that one I would think.


It's been 10 days since my bike was last on the road, and it is killing me.

There's a fair next weekend nearish to me, but no sign of a Ferris wheel there yet.

OK then... how about an easy one to move things along, plus it'll get you all out in the countryside.


Your bike next to a field of oil seed rape.

I'll leave the one the wife came up with for another time (hopefully)

And then thought it only right that a yellow bike gets this one, keeping with the countryside theme.. Next challenge your bike next to A wooded area with a carpet of bluebells.

If the next challenge is "Your bike outside a cafe", I'll give 10-1 odds on Midden getting it.  :lol :lol

I'm tempted to offer it for this one, actually!  :b

Bugger !  I should have had a look on the forum before riding home from work, lovely afternoon so came home a more scenic route ( and took off the squaring on rear tyre) even stopped off for a bloody ice cream ( had to ogle the scantily clad females, rude not too).
  Will check before leaving tomorrow

Think it's best to stick with a traditional seaside pier to prevent any bitching. Unless, of course it looks like this....

Worth a try perhaps:
 

 
Some of the small white dots on the hillside are definitely lambs  :b
