VTR Picture Game...if you dare!
So...here is how this game works.
Photograph your Superhawk and the forum members well try to pin point its location bu the use of hints and clues available from the picture alone.
Use street signs, landmarks etc...
Then use Google, Bing, Yahoo, AOL, Yelp!...
Then get the google map link to show its location and post it!
Do you think you're good enough? Want to be spy? How CSI are you? Hah!
Let's see how this game goes. Don't make it too difficult. Make it fun and it should be interesting. Also state the city where picture was taken.

another good photo game... "stolen from customfighters.com"
Should be a cool thread if it works. Thought a pict challenge thread is in order!
Rules:
1 - Has to be YOUR motorcycle.
2 - Picture has to be taken after challenge is made.
3 - Challenge is good for 2 weeks, if it is not met, the previous picture poster picks a new challenge.
4 - Nothing illegal to be challenged.
5 - Keep comments to a minimum, if you comment, post the current challenge after your comment.
6 - No repeat challenges.
7 - All challenges must be of you bike and a landmark, something most people can ride to or find in their area.
8 - No other bikes can be used in a challenge, ie. your bike next to a Ducati. Some exceptions allowed, ie. you bike next to a bike cop.
Examples - "Your motorcycle in a garage", "Your motorcycle crossing a river", "Your motorcycle with no engine", "Your motorcycle next to a firetruck" etc. Doesn't need to be a fancy picture, cell phones, whatever works.
Thanks guys. Remember, this thread is supposed to get guys to WANT to go ride right away and beat his friend to the picture challenge, be creative, but have limits. Thanks.

I made up this picture game. Not stolen from anyone. And the rules you posted do not work with my game.
In any case...
Rules are already posted in the opening of the thread by the OP (me).
Take picture near a landmark that shows subtle hints of where you are. Like a business name or a famous landmark. Also post the city to make it easy.
The players of this game will try and figure it out and post the answer with a Google Map link.
This should be an easy to play game that shows the SH community where we all live and play. I think that my game will build a larger sense of community by using these types of photographs.
I mean, really... Anyone can pose there bike next to a donut shop. But can you find the exact donut shop on google maps?
So...no thread high jacking please.

No pictures next to a fire hydrant
