Maybe y'all have something like this going on else where but could not find. The point of the game is to get folks to take pictures of their scooter out and about with something specific in the background. The picture is posted and the challenge is for everyone else to duplicate the scene with their scooter in the foreground. For instance if poster "A" photographs his bike in front of a waterfall the challenge is to find a waterfall and shoot a photo of your scooter in front of it. The first rider to post a matching scene gets the right to set the next scene.
RULES: 1) All photos must be current. No digging through archives to find a photo to match. The point is to get out, ride and enjoy the scenery and the challenge. All photos must include scooter.
2) Next challenge may not be a repeat of any of the previous 5 challenges. Let's keep it fresh.
3) Challenge winners set the specific parameters of the next challenge but must allow enough latitude to prevent unachievable matches.
4) If the challenge scene goes unmatched for 5 days the previous unmatched poster may post another challenge on day 6.
Get out, ride and have a good time.
If the moderators wish they may move this to any location they deem appropriate.

I'll start off: My Piaggio BV250 in front of an F4 on static display. The challenge is to photograph your scooter in front of any aircraft on static display. HAVE FUN!

This might be a difficult pic for some. How many people have an Air Force base close at hand?

Well, we don't have an Air Force base or any Military post here but there are at least three aircraft on display within 30 miles of me. This one is In front of a VFW hall. BTW it's a Marine fighter. When your turn comes up you can photograph your scoot in front of a stop sign if you wish. The point is it's a scavenger hunt...half the fun is getting out and riding to find a match.

Well, if this is still open and going on, the Wife and I are heading to the Aviation Heritage Park in Bowling Green Ky to get a picture. Seems like a good weekend to do it.

Tomorrow is 5 days. If no one matches I guess I'll have to repost on Tuesday. Hard to believe there has been no match. We have a rich aviation history here in Louisiana and such displays are not hard to find. Sorry, this is not a game you can play simply sitting in front of your computer.

I'll try to get out and see if I can get a picture of my scoot with a military (I think) helicopter in the background.

It was a nice trip, only 35 miles round trip. Ok, will this do? 2009 Ice Bear 150 by a F9F-5 Panther.

Great job Hobbles. Ok guys. Go fer it. I trust they still have lakes in California with that extended drought. Hobbles, would you accept a dry lake bed? BTW: nice looking ride. That F9 looks tiny.
