I don't think I've got a "favourite" shop, (Agent Provocateur aside.... ), but the first one that popped into my head was on the way home.
Next, your bike outside a shop you hate!

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
I had a very enjoyable couple of hours on the old red one this afternoon, it's been a fair while since I've been out on the old girl, and had forgotten how much I enjoy it- I love this bike, and it's just perfect for blatting through the countryside on a day like this
And on the way home, went past a couple of places that should satisfy the challenge, so it's two for the price of one from me on this one


Next - your bike near a operational pre-1980 car- ie rusty old non-starters at a scrappie or something that hasn't moved off someone's drive for yonks don't count

Chanced by this old knacker today, grabbed a quick photo just for here.

Thinking about something topical, so your bike next to a Whitehouse, extra points if it’s The Whitehouse.

Finally one I can get in first with... I did kind of ride it out of the garage to the front of the house, it's downhill so I didn't technically start the engine.

In sometimes sunny Snowdonia, the house has been altered and extended a few times but they kept the same style.cvilla wrote: Mon Apr 07, 2025 7:13 pm @twids roughly where in the country are you, interesting quoins you have. C
