Awesome, Scottie!  Where would you like me to send your bonus points?  :)

Curious - where was that taken?

At the Sonic Drive In in Aurora, CO.  It was funny, I pull in and get off my bike and walk up to the door and say "I have a unusual request.  Do you have any girls on skates that would want to take a pic next to my bike?"  After I explained myself he had a chuckle and went into the kitchen, a minute later the guy comes back out with a girl smiling and happy to do it.    :D   This particular Sonic has a classic car meet every Friday night through out the summer and fall and is a real fun way to spend a Friday night.  I've taken the Indian a few times.  It gets a lot of attention.

Now I can still do these! Jack and our REs on Deluz.
Next, The Enfield at the end of a rural road.

Sorry Bare!  It's nice to see your bikes "together again", though!

I took a picture today, only to see now that didn't really fit the challenge parameters at all!  I'd post it anyway, but it's so fuzzy, forget I mentioned it.

We've got plenty of back country roads with old trees around here, but we've also got bad weather coming for the next 3 or 4 days, so little to no chance of me getting out for a pic...

This is at the end of Yonah Dam Road in Stephens County, Georgia.  As you can see the road ends with a boat ramp into Yonah lake.  If anyone thinks this is not country enough it is actually about 4 miles down river from Tallulah Gorge where Deliverance was filmed.  Is that banjos I hear?

Almost forgot - next tag.  Since I had to ride by one to get this picture, your motorcycle (not just an Enfield Bare) by a dam.

Awesome!  Great pic SRL790!  And yes, I can hear the banjos in the background.    ;D
We really don't have any damns in Colorado.  LOTS of reservoirs, but no damns.

How do you have a reservoir without a dam?

They're not very big.  Basically small mountain streams with a hole dug out.  LOL   But now that I think about, there is one big one, Chatfield Reservoir.

I didn't think about a reservoir made by digging one out, lol.

Street sign with alliteration!  Woodsy Way, taken today @ lunch.
And for the next one:  A sign written in Hangul.  It can be a Church, Restaurant, Grocery, Doctor's Office, or anything else, just has to be a sign written in Korean Alphabet.

One of the road crossings had alliteration for both roads - Readington Rd intersecting Roosevelt RD - total four words, each starting with R - in first picture ! Something I never paid attention to till today though I have passed that road before.

DtheD challenge of Hangul script (Korean) sign in the second picture.

Next tag - RE in front of an Army Tank.
