    Seeing as your photo didn't meet the standard, the previous challenge still stands

    I am off to do this now. If I find the sign, it will have been well worth the effort but as this sign is 17 miles away I'll be back in a couple of hours or so.

    I have returned a failure. I was told that there was a "Welcome to Rhyl" sign and after riding 17 miles and spending the best part of an hour searching for said sign, it is apparent that it was a lie.

    I had to make do with this, as "Rhyl" as a place is about as offensive as it gets! I won't even try to claim a win, but after the effort I went to, I had to post something!

    knowing Rhyl, it's probably been nicked

    I would of thought the CC knew where a whole load of inappropriate signs were.

    Easy one now, your bike next to a red vehicle

    Next challenge: You and your bike playing hide and seek.

    Bonus points if your bike beats you.

    Me and my bike playing hide and seek. I'll take the bonus points as well as my bike is clearly beating me, I can't see the bugger anywhere! Side note, as a man this is as far as I have to look for anything before resorting to the universal call of "Honey, have you seen the....."

    Right, next challenge is your bike at the top of a flight of stairs. (The 2 steps down from your front door does NOT count as a flight)

    Next challenge: Your bike outside/next to an Ice Cream van ... bonus points if the owner is leaning out of the window and waving- and/or the van is a Transit :D

    Finally an ice cream van of sorts, Over here Glass means ice cream as opposed to glas which means well glass...... Its currently closed and will possibly be moved before winter hits and its buried under snow.

    If thats a win then
    Next Challenge: Your bike on a hilltop with a storm in the distance.

  • Bike = can do.
    Hilltop = can do
    Storm in the distance = no chance since it's september in far north queensland. We won't see storms for about 4 months, then it's nothing but storms!!

    Next challange your bike next to old type red phone box .
  • ats Is that a hill? :? Glad I don't live where you are, that looks like a small incline to me.
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    I reckon thats quite a good hill and you've also managed a storm as well, sweet, plus theres two bikes there, proof that were not a bunch of loners without mates. :)

    Speak for yourself :L

    Red phone box photos should be on the way later unless it pisses down (which it looks like it might do).

  • Here we go, one red telephone box and a TWO bikes:

    Is that a red phonebox looks a tab orange to me and two bikes! Like I need a excuse for a beer! Drinks it is then .YIPPEE
  • It is definitely red. I just took the photo late in the afternoon and had to boost the brightness. I think that may be what makes it look a tad orangey.
