Well, here's my MZ Silverstar near the Very Large Array in New Mexico... ran across it by accident on my way from Cali to Socorro NM some years ago on a trip. Thought I was in an 'X Files' episode.

There are people that think I belonged on that show... the guy who lived in the Airstream with all the antennas... LOL. OK so I kind of look like him....

I'm gonna ask for a pic of you ridin' your bike in the rain again. This pic shows dry bikes on dry pavement with riders in rain suits under a gas station canopy. That isn't ridin' in the rain, but hidin' from the rain.

This is ridin' in the rain.......

C'mon.....I wanna see real bikers really ridin' in the rain.

hunt4570 · « **Reply #69 on:** July 22, 2010, 08:34:20 AM »

Well that might be your opinion, that was a gas stop in the middle of 5 hours straight of riding in the rain at the beginning of our trip to Utah last month...going down the road in the rain the cameras are put away.

myronman3 · « **Reply #70 on:** July 22, 2010, 08:44:24 AM »

yeah, i cant say i am going to risk my camera getting ruined. i could tell by the picture they had been riding in the rain. that being said, a little light hearted teasing never hurt anyone.

hunt4570 · « **Reply #71 on:** July 22, 2010, 09:04:04 AM »

How about frozen rain.. It doesn't trash the camera's...

Gods country, just south of me. The driftless area just north of the Wisconsin and east of the Mississippi is some of the best ridin' in the country.......bar none. Don't be afraid to give us a holler if your ever in the area, we never need much of an excuse to ride.

hunt4570 · « **Reply #79 on:** July 23, 2010, 06:01:54 AM »

Na..those are just parked, they dont count!!

I dont know about the "best" riding in the country..colorado here aint to bad...

I posted this once before but will bore you all again. '90 Tengai, mild mods, 1000 screws in the tire (400 front, 600 rear) 88mph in 1000ft on glare ice. Interesting headshake starts around 80... Sled radar run up around Elk River MN if I recall correctly... around '94.

So then , whats next?

Cornbelt · « **Reply #82 on:** July 27, 2010, 12:10:08 PM »

Hasn't rained around here lately. But we have lots of cornfields with irrigation systems. That work?

myronman3 · « **Reply #83 on:** July 27, 2010, 03:04:17 PM »

it has been a few days since the previous challenge was met, and yet no 'next' challenge has been named. folks, when you post the required photo, you have to name the next challenge or you are effectively messing things up. the idea is also to keep your eyes open for opportunities to met the challenge while riding, or inspire an interesting ride if for nothing else, a picture to remember and enjoy. i have happened to enjoy watching for opportunities while i am out and about.
well, someone has to do it to keep the thread moving, so i will take the liberty of keeping the ball moving. how about the next picture challenge being a picture with your bike and a friend or relative that you havent visited in awhile?

here's a pic with some friends I ain't seen in a year or two. That's me in the middle with my arm around the ol' lady. Picture taken on the coast of Maine. Folks there from New Yawk, West Virginia and Korneyfornia. Big guy on the left in the orange rain suit passed away a year after the pic was taken from cancer. RIP JoeyG..........and God bless.

another pic of me and JoeyG and our bikes in front of Glimmerglass Lake in Upstate New York.

Iffin that counts, how 'bout a pic with your bike and a covered bridge?

and

now, how about a picture that was taken after this post was made, of a friend or family member you havent seen in a while. the picture must be taken after this post was made, no pictures taken previously allowed!

myronman3 · « **Reply #86 on:** July 29, 2010, 06:02:27 PM »

and yes, i did drive across the bridge when i was done, as to avoid a detour.

myronman3 · « **Reply #87 on:** August 05, 2010, 04:31:39 PM »

y'all got until sunday..... and then you will have forced me to play with myself yet again....

hunt4570 · « **Reply #88 on:** August 06, 2010, 09:51:29 AM »

The only people that fit that bill are 2-3 days ride from here, now if you wait till after labor day I'll be heading down to visit my daughter in Norman Oklahoma and can get you a pic then... 750 miles from here.. 1 day down, 2 days there, and 1 day back... Whoohoo!!

Cornbelt · « **Reply #89 on:** August 06, 2010, 10:29:09 AM »

Well, I've got some pictures for you. They won't win anything, but ought to keep you entertained. But the server keeps crapping out on me.
Maybe I'll try it early in the A.M.
