Tag is a Bail Bonds establishment:

Or an auto parts store for the non-locals.

New tag: scenic overlook:

Or, old hotel:

Or, covered bridge.

Scenic overlook in central Indiana?

Covered bridge I can do, but there is a frog strangler coming this afternoon.

That Convert is a damn good looking machine.

Over due for it's annual cleaning.

john fish · « **Reply #878 on:** June 13, 2022, 09:28:15 AM »

I’ll grab it to keep it rolling.
I hope to be on a Guzzi next time. I changed the rear tire on the V11 Sport and mission creep appeared. Flushing, cleaning, and lubing whatever I can reach now. So, Kaw it is. Grab.

New tag: Something near bicycles.

kidsmoke · « **Reply #880 on:** June 25, 2022, 04:31:40 PM »

Been a while since I contributed. Thought I'd give it a go.

Grab:

Little late 20th century style bicycle repair shop. No retail. And Rockwellian in the amount of traffic, from kids on Coasters to a 93 Merlin titanium with Full Dura Ace groupo in the very tiny shop. Only hung his shingle 18 months ago, transplant from Western PA

New Tag: specialty/focus repair shop. Preferably featuring combustion engines. This is an air cooled VW shop nearbye. They needn't bother with a sign, as you can see. If you're on facebook, they're worth a like/follow for the moto porn on near BAT level, Buggy Works Inc Indianapolis IN. Website by the same name for the facebook averse.

john fish · « **Reply #881 on:** June 25, 2022, 04:49:26 PM »

It's Herbie the Love Bug!!

Good tag.

Chuck in Indiana · « **Reply #882 on:** June 25, 2022, 05:26:36 PM »

Nice G5 Kip..

Do they do machine work? I have a couple of heads that need dual plugging and boring for big jugs. If I could (cough cough) pay someone to do it, I wouldn't have to, and I could continue with my little airplane project.

kidsmoke · « **Reply #883 on:** June 25, 2022, 06:17:15 PM »

That’s certainly my impression, Chuck. Extensive engine work/rebuilds/custom builds

Thanks for compliments on the bike. Fortunately hadn’t been messed with too badly by previous owners.

Antietam Classic Cycle · « **Reply #884 on:** July 03, 2022, 07:41:42 PM »

Grab: Cooker's VW near Williamsport, MD.

New Tag: Statue of someone famous, bonus points for a President. James Buchanan here.

pebra · « **Reply #885 on:** July 05, 2022, 09:23:34 AM »

Grab!
I must admit I had forgotten that "famous" part of the previous tag, but here's a statue of someone who's A) famous locally, having a street, a play and a restaurant named after him, and not only B) Italian, but C) whose parents both came from the Lago di Como area. So I claim bonus points, as well

I give you Caspar Donato Brambani, an industrious, socially responsible industrialist, a progressive contributor to society and towards his employees. Also president of the neighbourhood association, so there's your president.

New tag: A diving tower!

Bonus points if it's built to resemble a goose, like this one (in the distance)

(A diving board is accepted, I guess.)

john fish · « **Reply #887 on:** July 05, 2022, 06:09:18 PM »

Good grab. Diving board shouldn't be too hard.

kidsmoke · « **Reply #888 on:** July 05, 2022, 06:34:58 PM »

I believe the word was ‘tower’

joyinthecenter · « **Reply #889 on:** July 07, 2022, 03:52:01 PM »

Grab
This is the 10 meter tall diving tower in Portage Park, Chicago, IL. Great day for a swim. Tough to photograph a white tower through the trees.

New tag: A monument dedicated to a historical person/s, who was not military, government, or a religious figure.
Just like the Haymarket Martyrs Memorial

john fish · « **Reply #890 on:** July 07, 2022, 08:31:22 PM »

Excellent grab and tag.

Nicely done, my friend!! And braving the neighborhoods of Chicago for the cause!

Show off more of your nicely appointed V7 next time. That’s at least half the fun of this endeavor.

Antietam Classic Cycle · « **Reply #892 on:** July 17, 2022, 04:48:19 PM »

Grab: Rumsey Monument, Shepherdstown, WV.

john fish · « **Reply #893 on:** July 17, 2022, 05:39:54 PM »

Nice one. I officially have a crush on your ConVert. Great looking machine.

john fish · « **Reply #894 on:** August 07, 2022, 02:45:34 PM »

Well, if nobody else will grab it. Depot in Rowlesburg, WV.

john fish · « **Reply #895 on:** August 07, 2022, 04:45:40 PM »

New tag: town park. This one is in Rowlesburg.

john fish · « **Reply #896 on:** August 07, 2022, 04:56:30 PM »

Bonus: train rolling through Rowlesburg.

Chuck in Indiana · « **Reply #897 on:** August 15, 2022, 03:44:12 PM »

Grab.. Frankton, Indiana town park

Tag..
An outhouse. Privvy, etc. I suppose you city slickers could post a porta John.

PJPR01 · « **Reply #898 on:** August 15, 2022, 03:49:28 PM »

Wow...you got a new bike...is that the replacement of the Mighty Scura Chuck?

Chuck in Indiana · « **Reply #899 on:** August 15, 2022, 04:03:12 PM »

Not really.. a guy just can't replace the Mighty Scura.

Here's the story.. I was down to one bike for the first time in *years* and Dorcia said, "What are you going to ride if you get into a situation where you can't find a part for the Lario?"
Hmmm. I like the way you are thinking.

Looked around, and these Enfields are not your dad's Enfield. *Very* good quality and attention to detail, Harris chassis, but still has a long stroke single that I've always loved. It's kind of like a trip back to the 50s and I'm really enjoying it.
It is also the complete opposite to the Mighty Scura. Top speed is about 72.

Oh, they nailed the styling, too. I like looking at it. <shrug> Cheap, too. (Guzzi content) What's not to like?
